This herby pizza combines the earthy essence of sage, rosemary and thyme in an aromatic topping. Sage and rosemary impart a slightly piney flavor with citrus undertones. And thyme, with a trace of clove and pepper, enhances almost any food. Prep tip: Look for time-saving, premade, trans-fat-free pizza dough and crusts in the refrigerated section of your natural market.
