Sweet Potato & Rosemary Pizza

A sweet twist on one of our favorite pizzas we had in Naples.


1 premade pizza dough, or bread dough brought to room temp. (available in fridge section in many markets, or use frozen bread dough, thawed and risen)
8 - 10 slices provolone cheese
1 sweet potato, peeled and very thinly sliced
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 Tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Roll out dough to about a 10 inch round. Brush with some olive oil. Cover with a single layer of provolone slices. Cover cheese with a single layer of the sweet potato slices. Sprinkle with rosemary leaves, parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Drizzle with about 1 tablespoon olive oil. Bake at 450 degrees for about 10 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.
