Ingredients

1 recipe Herbed Whole Wheat Pizza Dough (see below)
8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced and divided
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
¾ tsp stone-ground Dijon mustard
¼ tsp coarse kosher salt
Cracked black pepper, to taste
2 cups baby arugula
1 cup baby spinach
½ cup microgreens
¼ cup cherry tomatoes, sliced
¼ cup shaved Parmesan cheese
Fresh basil, for garnish

Directions

Prepare Herbed Whole Wheat Pizza Dough (see below).
Preheat oven to 425°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough portion into an 8-inch circle. Transfer each circle to a baking sheet. Top each with 4 ounces mozzarella. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until outer crust is crisp and cheese is melted. Remove from oven; cool slightly.
For vinaigrette, in a small bowl whisk together olive oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper; set aside.
To serve, in a medium bowl combine arugula, spinach and microgreens. Drizzle with vinaigrette; toss to coat. Arrange greens mixture and cherry tomatoes on each pizza. Top with shaved Parmesan and garnish with fresh basil, if desired.
