Arugula and Cherry Tomatoes Pizza
Arugula is herby where cherry tomatoes is tangy and sweet, and a shared fresh streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Peppery, crisp arugula adds a fresh, vibrant bite as a post-bake pizza topping. Blistered cherry tomatoes burst with bright, sweet-tart juice on every slice. On a San Marzano Red Sauce base, the sauce's sweet and bright acidity character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
