Salad Pizza

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 5-oz. thin whole-wheat pizza crust
  • 1/4 cup basil pesto
  • 16 small fresh mozzarella balls, cut in half
  • 8 cherry tomatoes cut in half
  • 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper optional
  • 1 package arugula approximately 4 cups
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • shaved parmesan for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F and place rack in the top position.
  • Place pizza crust on a baking sheet or pizza stone and spread pesto over the crust generously. Top with the tomatoes and mozzarella and crushed red pepper, if using.
  • Bake on the top rack at 400°F until slightly crispy (about 6 minutes). Then, turn the broiler to high, and broil another 1-2 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool while you assemble the salad.
