Caramelized Sweet Potato (Or Squash) Pizza

Submitted by EmJoMay

"This is a recipe from Vegetarian Times. We made it and LOVED it! Very savory, and pretty darn easy! We made a few variations, such as sweet potato instead of winter squash and mozzarella instead of parmesan. We used red onion and a whole wheat, premade pizza round. I'd suggest tailoring the spices to taste. The original may be found here: http://www.vegetariantimes.com/recipes/8860?utm_source=Vegetarian&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=content"
