Avocado and Red Onion Pizza
Avocado is rich where red onion is sweet and savory, and a shared fresh streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Creamy avocado slices add a rich, buttery freshness to pizza as a luxurious post-bake topping. Vibrant red onion rings add a milder, slightly sweet onion flavor with beautiful purple color. On a Tomatillo Salsa Verde base, the sauce's tangy and bright character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
