Pizza is great. Probably my favorite thing about it is how it can really be a vehicle for almost anything. I use it for leftovers all the time. The best part about using it in this capacity is discovering a new combination that I just simply adore.
I never really considered using sweet potatoes on pizza until I had a bunch laying around along with some homemade pesto. I tried it on a whim and it was fantastic; it's earthy, hearty and kinda sweet. I think you are going to like it!
