This homemade strawberry pizza is also topped with bacon and caramelized onions. Created by Jessica Merchant of How Sweet It Is, the fruit-topped pizza recipe was inspired by a dish the food blogger tried at a Michigan-based restaurant.
Made mostly with ricotta cheese with just a bit of mozzarella mixed in, the creamy strawberry pizza features sweet caramelized onions, extra crispy bacon and a from-scratch "super briny and tart" strawberry balsamic drizzle. Other ingredients include fresh basil and oregano, freshly grated parmesan cheese and minced garlic cloves.
Described as a flavor-lover's dream come true, the pizza has a variety of different tastes and textures at play that will appeal to a more sophisticated palate. This is also a way to incorporate seasonal produce.
