This Mediterranean Flatbread is topped with arugula basil pesto, roasted tomatoes, peperoncini peppers, onions and fresh arugula. A vegan pizza dream.

Welcome back to our Week of Arugula.

Today we are cranking up the delicious meter and making this Mediterranean Flatbread.

Pizza dough is smothered in the Arugula Basil Pesto I shared with you yesterday and then topped with roasted tomatoes, red onion, peperoncini peppers and some fresh arugula.

It is a simple combo of ingredients with lots of flavor.

You could add some vegan cheese to the mix if you are into that, but there is already so much flavor going on here that I don’t think you even need it.

Arugula Health Fact:

Arugula has high levels of dietary nitrate.

What’s good about that?

Dietary nitrates have been shown to help athletic performance by improving muscle oxygenation. 

Hmmm…let me go throw on my running shoes 🙂
