Smoked Mozzarella and Roasted Red Pepper Pizza
Smoked Mozzarella is rich and savory where roasted red pepper is sweet and fresh, and a shared smoky streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Naturally smoked mozzarella delivers a subtle smokiness and exceptional melt to every pizza slice. Sweet, smoky roasted red peppers add vibrant color and a charred, velvety sweetness. On a Vodka Cream Sauce base, the sauce's tangy and creamy character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
