Trader Joe's White Pizza with Prosciutto and Arugula

This recipe was modified from Martha Stewarts - Bianca Pizza. It's one our favorite pizza meals and it's a easy one stop shop to pick up all ingredients at Trader Joe's.  

Recipe and Tutorial

Pre-heat oven to 500


Ingredient list: 

• All-purpose flour, for dusting and rolling
• 1 pound pizza dough, thawed if frozen
• 1/2 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese
• 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 3 garlic clove, minced
• 6-7 slices thinly sliced prosciutto  ( or any kind of Italian cured meat)   
• Coarse salt and ground pepper
• 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella (6 ounces)
• 1/3 cup grated Parmesan or Pecorino Romano (1 ounce)
• 2 ounces baby arugula (2 cups)

this is what my shopping trip to Trader Joe's looked like. 

1 Spread a liberal amount of flour and pizza dough on hard surface and use a rolling pin to roll crust out as thin and large as you can.  

Transfer to baking sheet and bake for 10 mins to pre-bake the crust ( not necessary if you have a pizza oven - I don't ) 

2. While crust is pre-baking mix ricotta, olive oil, garlic, pepper together  and spread on baked crust. 

3.  Put prosciutto or cured meat on pizza and spread mozzarella cheese over the - the ricotta mixture then put the  Parmesan or Pecorino

4. Bake pizza on the oven rack - do not bake on cookie sheet for 20 mins until cheese is melted and golden brown. 

5. Add arugula cut and enjoy!
