Prosciutto, Mushroom, Arugula Pizza

Sometimes you just want a pizza.
I was lazy to cook, so I decided to buy a pizza crust (multigrain), some prosciutto, mushrooms, arugula and voila. Light and quick pizza.

Preheat oven. Follow the instructions on the pizza package.
Rub crust lightly with crushed garlic, then add the mozzarella, prosciutto, mushrooms, salt and pepper. Be generous with the mushrooms as they tend to shrink in the oven. I made half of the pizza with mushrooms and the other half with prosciutto.Bake until golden and crisp. During baking time, mix arugula and basil with a little balsamic vinaigrette in a bowl.

Fruit and cheese platter

I love good cheese with grapes and crackers.
In the keep trim weeks you can any cheese, in small quantities.
