Wondering What to Cook Tonight - Fontina & Prosciutto Flatbread Pizza with Arugula Salad

The idea for this flatbread started with noticing that I had more fontina cheese than I knew what to do with and that I had two containers of arugula just hanging out in the refrigerator waiting to be eaten! This week has been extremely jam packed with work and life and I wanted to make something easy and delicious…easy being a very important element! I zipped to the grocery store (in the pouring rain) and got flatbread and prosciutto and these pizzas came together so easily…just the way I was expecting!

Fontina is an excellent melting cheese and goes so well with prosciutto, but I think it’s the fennel that really gives these flatbread pizzas a very sophisticated flavor and the salad on top gives it a freshness that goes so well with the prosciutto and cheese! Be sure to only add a drizzle of olive oil to the arugula salad so that it doesn’t get weighed down and soggy on the pizza!

I honestly can’t think of a thing I would add to make these better…you could add some really good blue cheese to the arugula salad, but it would only make it different, not necessarily better. I guess it just depends on what you like! Either way, this recipe is a winner and one you’ll make often.

If you want to make this for a Super Bowl appetizer, get the rectangular flatbread and cut it into slices!
