Ricotta and Zucchini Pizza
Ricotta is rich where zucchini is earthy, and a shared fresh streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Creamy, mild ricotta adds soft, pillowy dollops of fresh dairy richness to pizza. Thinly sliced zucchini adds a delicate, garden-fresh sweetness with a tender bite. On a Classic Basil Pesto base, the sauce's herbaceous and garlicky character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
