Simple Indulgence: No. 34

Prosciutto and Arugula Pizza

I am not a pizza person.  The only type of pizza that I would eat is thin crust.  Hubby learned quickly during our early stages of courtship not to bother putting other types of pizza on my plate because I won’t touch them with a ten-foot pole.

But I do enjoy making pizza for my family and friends.  Hubby and the kids love pizza and we always make an effort to make pizza together at least a couple times a month.  Last night was our pizza night but because I was so busy with work I completely forgot to make the dough.  We decided to have pizza anyway and visited the pizza restaurant that we always passed by.  They serve hand made stone oven thin crust pizza and the prizes are very affordable.

We ordered 2 pizzas but one in particular left a lasting impression on me.  The prosciutto and arugula pizza tasted better than it looked.  The combination of fatty, salty prosciutto and spicy arugula melted in my mouth and warmed my tummy.  I loved it so much that I googled for a similar recipe for our next family pizza making night.  Now that’s a simple indulgence that I don’t mind making every once in a while.

Until next week, I will see you on the blog.  Have a great and safe weekend!
