Description

Make up this delicious, healthy, plant-based Arugula Salad Pizza as a healthy meal-in-one in 45 minutes on your busiest night of the week.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (16-ounce) package refrigerated whole grain pizza dough (vegan)*
  • Cornmeal for sprinkling
  • 1/3 cup (86 g) marinara sauce
  • 1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 cup (112 g) shredded plant-based cheese
  • 2 cups (62 g) baby arugula
  • 1 1/2 cups (224 g) cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ½ medium red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 ripe medium avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup (31 g) pistachio kernels
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Roll out the pizza dough to fit a 14-inch pizza pan or pizza stone. Sprinkle the pan or stone with cornmeal and fit dough on top.
  2. Spread the marinara sauce onto the dough and sprinkle the oregano and plant-based cheese over it. Place the pan or stone in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the crust is golden and firm to the touch.
  3. At the last minute before serving, remove the crust from the oven and top with the arugula and baby spinach, tomatoes, bell pepper, avocado, and pistachios. The greens will wilt quickly.
  4. Drizzle with the vinegar and olive oil. Serve immediately.
