How to Make Arugula And Walnut Pizza

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 clove minced garlic. Let stand for 5-10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  3. Brush pizza crust (one 12-inch crust) with garlic oil. Evenly distribute 2 cups of arugula over the crust. Crumble 4 ounces of goat cheese over the arugula, followed by 1/2 cup of roasted walnut halves.
  4. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly.
  5. Remove from oven and drizzle 1-1.5 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar over the pizza.
  6. Let cool slightly, slice, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
