Spring is a time of warmer weather, sunshine, and beautiful flowers. It is a wonderful time for families to gather outside after a long cold winter spent trapped in the home. With Spring right around the corner, it is time to start planning for fun days spent outdoors. Pizza is the perfect food to serve at your first Spring gathering. Whether you are making it yourself or ordering delivery, pizza provides a convenient option for any event. Just grab paper plates, and you are all set! Here is a delicious recipe to bring all the flavors of Spring into a simple pizza dish.
When you think of Spring, you think of fresh vegetables, light cheeses, and flavorful herbs. We will combine all of these elements to create the perfect pie for a day spent outside with friends and family.
Ingredients
The beauty of this recipe is that it can be easily modified to substitute any of the toppings with your favorites. Pick and choose what you like in our recipe to make it your own! Here is a list of the ingredients we used:
- Frozen crust or premade pizza dough
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Arugula
- Fresh Rosemerry
- Strawberries
- Goat or Mozzarella Cheese
- Cooked chicken
- Walnuts
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit or set your pizza grill to medium heat. For a quick meal, use a frozen pizza crust. If you are using fresh dough, roll it out to form a circle and place it on a baking sheet.
Brush the crust or dough with a layer of olive oil, salt, and pepper. If you prefer, you can add a light tomato sauce base during this step.
Top the dough with all of your favorite Spring toppings. We love to use a layer of arugula, fresh strawberries, goat cheese, chicken, and a sprinkle of rosemary. Small orange slices or cranberries can be good fruit alternatives. Finish it off with chopped walnuts or almond slices for an extra crunch!
Throw your beautifully colored creation in the oven or on the grill until the crust is browned and the cheese is bubbling. Serve and enjoy!!
