Pear Prosciutto Pizza

INGREDIENTS

* store bought dough, or make your own:) for this recipe I am using store bought, yes you read that right and we live to tell:)
(or large pitas ,we cut open and use each half as mini pizzas, I use 4 large pitas, split those and lets to the math......that equals 8! so good kiddies)

* 1 pear (any kind)

* 15-20 slices of prosciutto, thinly sliced (or more of less, do what you want)

*2 tblsp. of pine nuts (optional)

* honey

* 3-4 tblsp. of "Renee's Cesar Salad Dressing" (this is galactose free-of course!) that amount is for 1 pizza, so double it because I forgot, I make 2 pizzas with this recipe.

(when I haven't had it, I sauteed a clove of minced garlic in 2 tblsp. olive oil until soft and used that as a substitute spread for on top of the pizza)

* grated Parmesan chesse

DIRECTIONS

1. Pre-heat oven to 400 F

2. Cut the dough in half (I guess this is where a picture is good-ah well, you'll get over it)
this way I can make 2 thin pizzas. Sprinkle flour on the counter and roll out the dough until it is the shape of your baking sheets.

3. Spread the dressing all over the dough once it is on the baking sheets(3-4 tblsp. per dough)

4. Bake for 12-15 minutes. until bottom is golden brown.

Meanwhile......

5. Pan fry (gasp) the prosciutto...I fry it until the meat is a bit crispy)

6. Once the meat is done, brown pine nuts in the left over grease in the pan, yes you read it right:)

7. Thinly slice the pear.

8. Remove pizza, crumble prosciutto over pizza and use 1/2 of the pear for each pizza. arranging in a diagonal shape...its prettier:)

9. Sprinkle pine nuts and drizzle honey all over the pizza and top it with grated Parmesan.

10. Return pizza to the oven for 2-3 minutes until cheese has melted.


Serve!!!

We ate this the other night with a cucumber and black olive salad and a strawberry and kiwi salad. Mostly because that's what I could find in the fridge that needed to be eaten:)
