Roasted Garlic and Spinach Pizza
Roasted Garlic is sweet, savory and rich where spinach is earthy and fresh, a contrast that keeps every bite interesting. The affinity runs both ways, which is why this combination keeps showing up on serious pizza menus.
Slow-roasted garlic cloves become impossibly sweet, mellow, and spreadably soft. Fresh spinach wilts into tender, iron-rich leaves that add a mild, earthy green flavor. On a White Garlic-Parmesan Cream Sauce base, the sauce's roasted garlic and nutty character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
