Ingredients

• 1 ball (approximately 10 ounces) whole wheat pizza dough
• 1 spray olive oil spray
• 1 cup (shredded) low fat mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup tomato sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 cups arugula
• 2 ounces prosciutto
• 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.

Step 2

Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough on a lightly floured surface until you achieve a thin, approximately 12-inch round shape.

Step 3

Place the rolled-out dough on a piece of parchment paper. Lightly spray the surface of the dough with olive oil spray.

Step 4

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.

Step 5

Sprinkle the garlic powder, dried oregano, and crushed red pepper flakes over the sauce to taste.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the shredded low fat mozzarella cheese over the sauced base.

Step 7

Using the parchment paper, transfer your pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or a baking sheet.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

Step 9

Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for a couple of minutes.

Step 10

Scatter the fresh arugula generously over the top of the pizza.

Step 11

Slice the prosciutto into thin strips and distribute evenly over the arugula.

Step 12

Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the whole pizza in a crisscross pattern.

Step 13

Cut into slices and serve immediately.
