Sweet Potato and Kale Pizza
Sweet Potato is sweet and rich where kale is fresh, and a shared earthy streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Caramelized sweet potato rounds bring natural sweetness, creamy texture, and autumn warmth to pizza. Crispy-edged kale leaves add a satisfying crunch and earthy, slightly bitter green flavor. On a Brown Butter-Sage Sauce base, the sauce's nutty and toasty character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian. Both toppings peak in fall, which makes this a natural fall pizza.
