Calories 1016kcal
Ingredients
- 14-16 ounces homemade pizza dough
- 1/3 cup basil pesto
- 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese shredded
- 2 cups kale chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 ounces goat cheese crumbled
- arugula for topping
- balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Spread a thin coat of olive oil on a baking sheet.
- Roll the pizza dough into a thin circle. (We love thin crust pizza, so we roll ours out fairly thin). Carefully transfer the pizza dough to the baking sheet.
- Spread the basil pesto into an even layer on top of the pizza dough.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella over the pesto.
- In a medium sized bowl combine the kale, olive oil, and salt and pinch of black pepper. Using your hands, massage the kale until the leaves become droopy and soft, about 2 minutes.
- Spread the kale in an even layer over the mozzarella cheese.
- Disperse the crumbled goat cheese over the kale.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes or until the crust is golden in color and cooked through.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and top with fresh arugula and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Enjoy!
