ROCKET + PINE NUT PIZZA WITH A CREAM CHEESE SAUCE
What you will need:
The Base: For the base I used this recipe but a pre-made base will work fine.
Cream Cheese Sauce: 1 cup cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of minced garlic, 1 cup sour cream and 1 cup grated parmesan cheese.
Topping: 8 bocconcini balls cut in slices, 1 cup rocket leaves, 1/2 cup crumbed fetta cheese, 1/4 cup pine nuts and cherry tomatoes.
What to do:
Pre heat your oven to moderate and grease or line your pizza tray. Prepare your dough as your chosen recipe states. Roll your dough out thinly and line your tray. Now that your base is done you can start making your cream cheese sauce. Do this by combining all the ingredients together in a large saucepan and cook on a low heat. Stir your mixture continuously until the cheeses melt and you get a nice even consistency. This usually takes no loner than 5 minutes. Once well combined remove your saucepan from the heat and evenly spoon your sauce onto the pizza base. Place the bocconcini slices on top of the sauce and drizzle with some olive oil. I like to keep some of my toppings raw so I now bake my base until crisp then add the rocket, pine nuts, tomatoes and fetta once cooked.
This recipe serves 2 and any left over pizza sauce tastes amazing as a dip combined with garlic bread. Enjoy!
Looks so good! Vibrant and tasty!
Thanks! This has to be one of my favourite pizza recipes! Becky xo
