Roasted Cauliflower and Lemon Zest Pizza
Roasted Cauliflower is earthy, sweet and savory where lemon zest is fresh and tangy, a contrast that keeps every bite interesting.
Golden roasted cauliflower florets bring a nutty sweetness and satisfying texture to vegetable-forward pizzas. Bright lemon zest adds a fragrant citrus lift that awakens and freshens rich pizzas. On a Classic Basil Pesto base, the sauce's herbaceous and garlicky character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
