He's whipped up two pizza recipes – the Artichoke Bianco and the Greek Isles – that UNO Chicago Grill is currently offering on their takeout menu. Ten percent of each sale will support Services for the UnderServed (SUS), a non-profit organization that offers aid to veterans.
"I hope we can raise enough money for SUS to continue to broaden their outreach and impact their capacity to meet the needs of those who serve," Zimmern – who recently joined the SUS board – says.
