If you know me, you know that I was raised on combinations and flavors that are sweet and salty. Back home in Europe we absolutely love anything that’s sweet and salty together, so here I topped it with fig and 🧀 cheese, but you can top your naan pizza with whatever ingredients you and your family love.
