Mushroom & Prosciutto Pizza with Arugula & Hot Honey
Okay okay okay…. I know what you might be thinking, another pizza?! It’s true, yes, I am obsessed with pizza. I honestly eat it probably once a week, but to be fair it’s so versatile and who doesn’t love cheese mixed with other toppings on top of bread?! That’s what I thought.
In all seriousness, I actually don’t love “take out” pizza that much. You can catch me making a frozen pizza when I need a very quick weeknight meal, or if I have a little bit of time it’s also super easy to make a bombbbb homemade pizza. I must admit, I don’t make my own crust. I always get crust from Trader Joe’s or Wegmans, and you know what - it’s great! And saves me a lot of time.
I’ve made many different versions of homemade pizza, but dare I say this one might be my favorite?! This baby is loaded with flavor. Starting with the garlic base. I mean it literally has a whole head of roasted garlic mashed together with some olive oil and herbs… drool. We’ve also got two different cheeses, veggies, prosciutto, and to tie it all together topped it with hot honey. MMMM, it’s so good. You can find the video for this recipe here.
