This homemade Sausage Arugula Pizza is bursting with the bold flavor of arugula and sausage. So much better than take out!
When someone said it was National Pizza Month I wanted to shout from the rooftops! Okay so maybe I was not going to be that dramatic but I do get excited when it comes to pizza!
Whether it is made fresh at home, like this Blue Cheese Prosciutto Pizza or carry out, I am always happy to oblige!
I have had this flavor of pizza several times when we visit Italy I have just never really made it at home. My hubby was glad when I finally did!
The arugula does add a sharp taste to the pizza but it actually helps balance out the flavors from the crust to the garlic and finally the sausage!

But we love doing BBQ ones, or chicken with a creamy white sauce, or even breakfast pizza with scrambled eggs, cheese and sausage gravy.

Those sound so good!
