Arugula & Lemon Pizza

I’ve tried several times over the years to make my own pizza, and I’ve always concluded that it’s best to order from the professionals.  The dough is always hard to work with, and  I end up with holes in my doughy, undercooked pizza crust every time.  However, I have a new cookbook that I LOVE (The Meat Lover’s Meatless Cookbook by Kim O’Donnel), and it includes a recipe for arugula & lemon pizza.  I was intrigued and decided to give pizza-making another try.  Dave was a little unsure about the idea of putting salad greens on top of a pizza, but we were both pleasantly surprised!  The dough wasn’t hard to work with and arugula and lemon were great!

Now we’re experimenting with different pizza crust recipes.  We’ve even made a couple of pizzas with different toppings, but arugula and lemon have become our favorite pizza topping!
