What Do Mustard Greens Taste Like? I find them less bitter than kale or collard greens, and more peppery, like arugula. Just one taste of a raw leaf and you’ll know it came from a mustard plant. Cooked, they taste a lot like spinach but with more body....

That original version featured barbecue sauce and chicken (duh) along with mozzarella, smoked Gouda, red onion, and a sprinkle of cilantro after it came out of the oven. How To Make Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken Pizza This sheet pan recipe is fairly similar to the original except I pare it down to one cheese and skip the cilantro in favor of thinly sliced jalapeño, which I think is the key to making the pizza really shine....
For this recipe, toasted pieces of bread are soaked in a sage and garlic egg-milk mixture and layered between cubes of roasted butternut squash, kale, and cheese. The resulting dish is rich and filling. Using turmeric brightens up the whole affair, but you can leave it out if you don’t have any on hand. There is a lot of beta carotene in there, so it will be gorgeous either way....

Here, creamy fontina, salty Parmesan, thin ribbons of zucchini and slivers of sweet red pepper get you started. Once the pizza comes out of the oven, it’s crisp at the edges and chewy in the center. Top it with some greens, cherry tomatoes, and fresh herbs, and presto! You have pizza and salad all in one!
