  • Yield: 4 Servings
  • Preparation Time: 5 Minutes
  • Cooking Time: 10 Minutes

Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 1 (11-ounce) package refrigerated thin-crust pizza crust dough
  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 3 large basil leaves, cut into thin strips
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1⁄8 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups loosely packed arugula
  • 1½ cups diced seeded plum tomato (about 2)
  • 4 (0.67-ounce) slices reduced-fat provolone cheese (such as Sargento)
How to Make It
  1. Preheat oven to 425°.
  2. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Roll out dough onto prepared baking sheet; cut dough crosswise in half, creating 2 smaller rectangles. Brush surface of dough with 1 teaspoon oil; sprinkle with garlic, basil, and 1⁄8 teaspoon pepper. Bake at 425° for 8 minutes or until crust is golden but still pliable.
  3. While crust bakes, combine remaining oil, remaining 1⁄8 teaspoon pepper, vinegar, and salt in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add arugula and tomatoes; toss well.
  4. Arrange cheese slices lengthwise down long side of crusts; top with arugula mixture. Fold dough over filling, creating 2 long rectangle sandwiches. Bake an additional 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Cut each rectangle crosswise in half. Serve immediately.
