Fresh Mozzarella and Arugula (Rocket) Pizza

Submitted by KelBel

"Fresh arugula sprinkled atop a hot cheese pizza is simplicity at its best. Arugula wilts slightly and the peppery flavor comes out. You must try this with arugula, although baby spinach can be substituted, but it's not the same. This is just delicious!"

Really enjoyed this! Had some beautiful organic arugula and used a whole bunch, maybe 2 cups chopped, to top a pizza I made with recipe #13546 and Recipe #51861. Even the leftovers were wonderful. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

This is excellent! A 10 minute dinner - woo hoo! :) I used the sauce that came with the Boboli. I had some leftover prosciuto, so I layered that over the sauce, then the arugula, then the cheese. OH YUM!! Pizza is DH2B's favorite, and even my little one scarfed this one down. Thanks! :)
