Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Toss the sweet potato chunks, olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl, and spread the sweet potatoes out onto a large rimmed baking sheet.
- Roast in the preheated oven until browned and tender, about 40 minutes; stir after the first 20 minutes.
- Cook the bacon until crisp and brown in a large skillet over medium heat, about 10 minutes; transfer bacon to a bowl, but leave the grease in the skillet. Cook the onions in the bacon grease until browned, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low, and cook the onions until very soft, brown, and sweet, another 10 to 15 minutes. Stir often. Mix the onions with the bacon in the bowl, and set aside.
- Pour the maple syrup into the hot skillet with the thyme, and bring to a rolling boil. Boil the syrup until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Place the roasted sweet potatoes and onion-bacon mixture into the skillet, and stir to coat the vegetables with maple glaze. Transfer to a serving dish.

WHITE PIZZA WITH SWEET POTATO AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS
I've suggested in the box on page 141 that most of the pizza recipes in this chapter double easily if you need more servings, with the exception of this one. This is only because it would take an awfully long time to caramelize four large onions. Not that this can't be done, but it wouldn't be a particularly quick meal. However, if time is not an issue and you have a nice large pot for the onions, be my guest and make two of these amazingly delicious pizzas.
Yield makes 6 slices
Number Of Ingredients 9
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lightly oil a small baking pan.
- Heat the oil in a medium skillet. Add the onions and sauté over medium-low heat until limp. Add the garlic and continue to sauté until the onion is deep golden, stirring frequently, about 15 minutes. If using the portobello, add it after about 10 minutes, continuing to sauté until the slices are softened and the onions golden, stirring occasionally.
- While the onions are cooking, peel the sweet potato, quarter it lengthwise, and slice it 1/4 inch thick. Place the slices in the prepared pan in a single layer. Bake until just tender and lightly roasted, about 15 minutes. Stir every 5 minutes or so.
- Puree the tofu with the salt in a food processor or with an immersion blender in its container.
- Place the crust on a baking sheet or pizza stone. Spread the pureed tofu evenly over the crust with a baking spatula. When the onion mixture is done, spread it evenly over the pureed tofu. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden.
- Scatter the roasted sweet potato pieces over the surface of the pizza. Cut into 6 slices and serve.
- To keep the meal really simple, choose one of the green salads suggested under Recipe Not Required (page 192).
- If you'd like a pairing that dazzles the eye, try this with Broccoli Salad with Yellow Peppers, Pine Nuts, and Cranberries (page 182).
- See the menus suggested for Orzo Soup with Roasted Vegetables (page 24) or Tomato Chickpea Soup with Tiny Pasta and Fresh Herbs (page 32).

SWEET POTATOES AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS
Steps:
- Peel and chop the onions. Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes or matchsticks. Heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat in a large heavy frying pan or 4-quart pot. Sauté the onions slowly over medium heat until they are turning amber, then darker brown - about 15 minutes. Once the onions are caramelized, add the sweet potato chunks and garlic. Continue cooking over medium heat, turning up the heat a little if the potato does not brown at all. Cook until the potatoes are also slightly browned and golden. Add the water, turn the heat to low, and cover for about 10 minutes, or until the potato has softened. Remove the lid, turn the heat back up, and add the ginger, paprika, and salt and pepper to taste, Sauté just a little longer, then remove from the heat and serve.
