Sweet Potato and Arugula Pizza
Sweet Potato is sweet, earthy and rich where arugula is fresh and herby, a contrast that keeps every bite interesting.
Caramelized sweet potato rounds bring natural sweetness, creamy texture, and autumn warmth to pizza. Peppery, crisp arugula adds a fresh, vibrant bite as a post-bake pizza topping. On a Brown Butter-Sage Sauce base, the sauce's nutty and toasty character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
