Summer is here and while we’re all about barbecues and burgers when the weather heats up, pizza is a pretty great option to, especially with special seasonal pies offered by Philadelphia restaurants. From gluten-free options to pizzas that are downright peachy, here are four summer pizza pies that we’re dying to try this summer.

The folks over at SLiCe have debuted a special gluten-free mushroom and goat cheese pie for the summer months, that’s also topped with portobello mushrooms, baby spinach and red onions. For added security, the pizza crust is cooked in a separate pan to avoid contamination. SLiCe, 1180 S. 10th St., 1740 Sansom St., 431 E. Girard Ave.,  SLiCepa.com
