Goat Cheese on Springtime Pizzas
April is the perfect time for fresh, light pizzas that are bursting with spring flavors. As the weather warms up, we crave vibrant, seasonal ingredients that bring out the best in each bite. And one of the most versatile ingredients that elevate pizza is goat cheese. Whether you're making a classic Margherita or exploring new flavor combinations, goat cheese offers a creamy, tangy bite that complements fresh vegetables, herbs, and more.
At La Bonne Vie, we believe that goat cheese can take any pizza to the next level, and we're excited to share some pizza inspiration with you!
Goat Cheese on Margherita Pizza
If you love a classic Margherita pizza, you’re in for a treat! Swap the traditional mozzarella for La Bonne Vie’s creamy goat cheese crumbles to add a unique, tangy twist. Our goat cheese melts beautifully on pizza, offering the same creamy texture as mozzarella but with a distinct flavor that pairs perfectly with the fresh basil, ripe tomatoes, and rich tomato sauce.
Watch the video below showing this delicious combination— sprinkle goat cheese crumbles on a classic Margherita pizza and finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze for the perfect balance of savory and sweet.
Spring Vegetable and Herb Pizzas
Spring brings an abundance of fresh vegetables that are perfect for pizza toppings. From asparagus and artichokes to peas and fresh herbs, goat cheese complements the lightness of these vegetables in a way that other cheeses can’t quite replicate.
Asparagus and Goat Cheese Pizza: Roasted asparagus, a drizzle of olive oil, and crumbled goat cheese create a pizza that’s as vibrant as it is delicious. Top with a sprinkle of fresh thyme or rosemary for added flavor.
Pea and Mint Pizza with Goat Cheese: For a fresh, herbaceous pizza, use La Bonne Vie’s herb-infused goat cheese to pair with sweet peas and mint. The tangy cheese balances the sweetness of the peas, while the mint adds a refreshing twist.

Goat Cheese and Prosciutto Pizza
If you're looking for a savory-sweet combo, prosciutto and goat cheese are an irresistible match. The rich, salty prosciutto pairs perfectly with the tangy creaminess of goat cheese, creating a flavor profile that’s perfect for springtime.
Top your pizza with thin slices of prosciutto, a generous spread of La Bonne Vie’s goat cheese, and finish with a drizzle of honey (or hot honey for a spicy take) and a handful of arugula for a sophisticated take on pizza. The mix of sweet, salty, and creamy is nothing short of delicious!
