Ingredients

• 4 pieces small naan breads or pita breads
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 cups arugula
• 0.25 cup red onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Place the naan or pita breads on the prepared baking sheet. Brush evenly with olive oil.

Step 3

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheeses over the naan, dividing evenly between the four bases.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for 7-10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges of the naan are golden brown.

Step 5

While the pizzas are baking, prepare the salad topping. In a large bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, arugula, and red onion slices.

Step 6

Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the salad mixture and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss gently to combine.

Step 7

Once the pizzas are out of the oven, let them cool for 1-2 minutes. Then, top each pizza with a generous portion of the salad mixture.

Step 8

Cut into slices (optional) and serve immediately for a combination of warm cheesy pizza and fresh, tangy salad.
