Food Recipes Green and White Pizza Restaurant-worthy pizza in the comfort of your own home has never been easier—or more delicious—than with this sophisticated vegetarian rendition. You’ll sauté pleasantly bitter broccoli rabe in fragrant garlic, then pile it onto pillowy pizza dough with a dollop of crème fraîche and a generous amount of mozzarella and Parmesan—adding both layered flavor and ample cheesy coverage. After baking, a sprinkle of walnuts and crushed red pepper flakes brings richness and heat to each bite. To really take it over the top, drizzle each finished pie with olive oil and then shower with flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
