Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

  2. 2

    Roll out the Dough

    On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a round shape about 12 inches in diameter.

  3. 3

    Add the Sauce

    Spread the marinara sauce or basil pesto evenly over the rolled-out pizza dough.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then add halved cherry tomatoes and slices of prosciutto on top.

  5. 5

    Bake the Pizza

    Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the pizza stone) and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  6. 6

    Add Arugula

    Once the pizza is out of the oven, top it with fresh arugula, a drizzle of olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the pizza into wedges and serve hot.
