Eggplant and Cherry Tomatoes Pizza
Eggplant is smoky, earthy and savory where cherry tomatoes is fresh, tangy and sweet, a contrast that keeps every bite interesting.
Roasted eggplant brings a silky, smoky, almost meaty quality to vegetarian pizza. 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. Both toppings peak in summer, which makes this a natural summer pizza.
