Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425ºF. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Add grapes to the baking sheet, and drizzle balsamic over the grapes. Sprinkle salt over the grapes. Bake 20 minutes.
- Line a pizza stone or baking sheet with parchment paper, and add the pizza dough.Note: If baking pizza on an air-flow pizza pan, you should NOT add parchment paper.
- While grapes roast, brush pizza dough with olive oil.
- Use a fork to crumble apart both cheeses. Add cheese evenly to the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- When grapes are done roasting, remove them from the oven, but leave the oven on. Separate the grapes and the roasting liquid, keeping both. Pour the roasting liquid into a small mixing bowl, and add the grapes evenly onto the pizza dough.Tip: Drain as much of the liquid off the grapes as possible, because excess liquid will make your pizza soggy.
- Cook the pizza for about 15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.
- Allow pizza to cool for about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the olive oil into the roasting liquid. Stir in the shallot. Taste, and add salt if desired.
- Toss arugula in about ¼ of the dressing. Add more dressing if desired. Store the extra dressing in the fridge, and use on your next salad.
- Top pizza with the dressed arugula. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Grapes can be roasted up to 3 days ahead of time to reduce total time to 25 minutes.
- Nutrition information assumes ¼ of the dressing was used.
