Butternut Squash and Caramelized Onion Pizza
Butternut Squash is earthy where caramelized onion is savory, and a shared sweet and rich streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Roasted butternut squash cubes add a velvety, naturally sweet autumn richness. Slowly caramelized onions add a deep, jammy sweetness with savory undertones. On a Brown Butter-Sage Sauce base, the sauce's nutty and toasty character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
