    Arugula Salad Pizza Recipe

    Grilled pizza! The only way to eat pizza in the summer! 

    And since it’s summer and salad season, let’s make it a salad pizza, shall we? Grilled Arugula Salad Pizza With Prosciutto is my favorite!

    Grilled pizza topped with a bed of baby arugula greens lightly tossed in a white balsamic vinaigrette dressing. Now that’s what I call delicious pizza perfection!

    The warmth of the grilled pizza crust wilts the baby arugula, tomatoes and prosciutto ever so slightly making each bite the perfect combination of summer flavors and textures. 

    Have you ever put arugula on pizza? I love the fresh flavors and texture of tender greens on a warm cheesy prosciutto pizza.

    Fire up the grill, it's time for a prosciutto pizza with arugula and all it’s summer flavors!

    Swirls of Flavor Recipe Tips

    • Substitute assorted baby greens for the baby arugula
    • Add pepperoni
    • Top with black olives
    • Chop artichoke hearts and toss with the baby greens

    How to make homemade pizza in the oven

    Prefer to bake your pizza in the oven? Just preheat oven to 425F.

    No need to brush the crust with olive oil. Just top with the pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese and bake until the cheese is melted and the pizza is heated through, about 8 minutes.

    Then top pizza with salad mixture and your pizza will be just as delicious as if you grilled it!
