Pear and Prosciutto Pizza

I made this pizza in less than a half hour and it was so uncomplicated and appealing. It was possibly one of the best and easiest pizzas that I’ve made.

I bought a pizza crust at Fresh Market for $1.50 and it was so worth it as I did not have time to make my own.

This pizza serves one and believe me, I wasn’t sharing mine with anyone. I loved the pears and would definitely make this pizza again.

Arugula with a base of sweet caramelized onions… add salty prosciutto and provolone cheese and you have one great pizza.

Bon Appetit!
