Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 can Pillsbury pizza dough, original
  • 1/2 package of cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Thyme
  • Rosemary
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 3 shallots, sliced
  • 4 crushed garlic cloves.
  • 1/3 jar of Pesto Alla Firenze, Artichoke (or more if needed)
  • Small package of soft goat cheese (2-4oz), cut up
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 handfuls of arugula
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 4 eggs (any style, over-easy preferred, 1 per person)

Instructions

  1. First roast, the cherry tomatoes. Preheat oven to 450. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. In a small bowl, toss tomatoes with thyme, salt, pepper, and a tablespoon of olive oil. Evenly spread on the baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until they start to char and shrivel. Remove from oven, and set aside in a small bowl.
  2. Preheat the oven according to your pizza dough directions and prebake the dough as needed following those same directions.
  3. Heat a medium pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Sauté the shallots and garlic until translucent and fragrant. Set aside in the same bowl as the roasted tomatoes.
  5. Cook your eggs to each guest’s preference and set aside.
  6. Spread the Pesto Alla Firenze over the crust.
  7. Layer with roasted tomatoes and shallots/garlic.
  8. Use a bit of the mozzarella cheese to slightly over the top of everything.
  9. Evenly place the soft goat cheese over the mozzarella.
  10. Top with remaining mozzarella cheese.
  11. Place back in the oven for about 8-10 minutes or until the cheese and crust start to turn golden and bubbly.
  12. While the pizza bakes, toss arugula with 1 tsp lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  13. Remove the pizza from the oven (cut if needed) and top with arugula mixture and an egg for each person.
  14. May want to let cool slightly before eating!
