Butternut Squash and Goat Cheese Pizza
Butternut Squash is sweet and rich where goat cheese is tangy and fresh, and a shared earthy streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Roasted butternut squash cubes add a velvety, naturally sweet autumn richness. Tangy, creamy goat cheese adds bright acidity and a distinctive earthy character 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.
