Brussels Sprouts and Mushrooms Pizza
Brussels Sprouts and mushrooms both lean earthy, savory and umami, so the pairing doubles down on what each does best instead of competing.
Charred, halved Brussels sprouts deliver a nutty crunch and savory depth to fall and winter pizzas. Earthy, savory mushrooms add a meaty depth and woodsy aroma to pizza. On a Brown Butter-Sage Sauce base, the sauce's nutty and toasty character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
