Meat flatbreads (or pizzas) versus veggie flatbreads (or pizzas) is like an adult version of The Butter Battle Book, with combatants on both sides assured that their way of topping their bread-y dinner is right. We're dedicated to not taking sides… on the other hand, this flatbread with sweet joyful morsels of sweet potato, caramelized red onion, and tangy BBQ sauce makes a solid case that you don't need meat to eat magnificently. With bellies full of such delightfulness, you'll be too stuffed and happy to fight. (Butter side up!)
