Pizza arugula white pizza

🧂 Ingredients

1 Allow the pizza dough to rise…take it out of the bag, put it in a deep bowl,
drizzle some olive oil over it so it stays moist, and then leave it alone for
30-40 minutes.
2 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. When the dough has become big and bubbly –
sprinkle some flour on your baking plate, your hands, and the dough. Then use
your hands to form it into a flattened…well, whatever shape the dish is that you
will be baking it on (either circular or rectanglular (I have both shape pizza
stones).
3 Carefully place the dough on the baking stone. Drizzle olive oil over the dough…
then add one tablespoon of basil pesto. Use the back of the spoon to spread the
pesto over the dough.
4 Spoon on some ricotta cheese… and spread it out with the back of the spoon so
that there is a nice thin layer. (If you really love some ricotta, use as much
as you’d like! I use the whole 8 oz.)
5 Sprinkle the pie with mozzarella cheese. Bake for 30 minutes.
6 Remove the pizza from the oven. While it is still hot, cover the pie with
arugula – use a lot or a little depending on how much you like the spicy green
leaf.
7 Drizzle the balsamic marinade over the top of the arugula. Cut yourself a BIG
slice. Enjoy!!
