Not Your Typical Pizza

I know I have mentioned Naan's before in a previous post, but you have got to try the Naan that Whole Foods makes. I wanted to make a pizza dish, and decided to use the Naan as my crust.

Pear Goat Cheese Pizza
Serves about 2
Ingredients:
1 Whole Wheat Naan
1 Taylor's Gold Pear, sliced
2 Tbs. of Goat Cheese
1 cup of Baby Arugula
1 small Red Onion, diced
Balsamic Vinaigrette
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Meanwhile, prepare the pear and red onion as directed above. Once the pear and red onion are cut and cleaned, set aside. On one naan, spread the goat cheese thinly. Add the arugula, then the pear and red onion. Drizzle the top with some balsamic vinaigrette and olive oil. Finish off with salt and pepper. Bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the toppings look golden brown and crispy.
Once done cooking, feel free to add more salt and pepper or olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette to your liking.


This pizza was incredible and light. The sweet creamy taste of the pear and goat cheese, paired with the crunch of the red onion and arugula was perfect. The drizzle on top was a great addition that gave just the right extra flavor.
