In an effect to make its offering more accessible to a wide range of consumers, Pizza Hut has teamed up with Beyond Meat on two new offerings: The Great Beyond Pizza and the Beyond Italian Sausage Pizza.
Co-created by Pizza Hut and the Beyond Meat culinary teams, the new pizzas have been crafted to deliver the signature taste of Pizza Hut's Italian Sausage topping, but in a plant-based form. The Great Beyond Pizza pairs Beyond Italian Sausage with veggie-friendly toppings like tomatoes, red onions, and banana peppers on Pizza Hut's Original Pan crust. On the other hand, the Beyond Italian Sausage Pizza is a simpler option that features Beyond Italian Sausage crumbles and a blend of authentic Italian herbs and spices like garlic, paprika, onion, and fennel.
