mains / quick meals / air fryer

The best kind of salad? One that goes on top of pizza, duh!

I have always been a salad pizza lover. It still let’s me have my favorite food of all time (pizza obviously) and not full so guilty or overly full afterwards. Italian salads are always my jam. I love adding pickled peppercinis, prosciutto, red onions, tomatoes and all the Italian spices to my salad. It make the pizza taste so fresh adding lots of vinegar and fresh veggies to the mix.

Here’s what you’ll need for this Salad Pizza with Crispy Prosciutto:

• pizza crust

• marinara - I use my Nonnie’s Marinara Sauce

• red onion

• prosciutto

• butter lettuce

• radicchio

• pickled peppercinis

• tiny cherry tomatoes

• parmesan

• oregano

• olive oil

• salt

• pepper

• red pepper flakes

• red wine vinegar

Bake your pizza crust with the marinara on for amount on package. Meanwhile you are going to make your salad. Combine the lettuce with all the veggies. Slice the prosciutto and add to the air fryer. Once it’s crispy, add it to the salad. Drizzle the olive oil and red wine vinegar over top and add in the oregano, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Remove the pizza from the oven and add the salad over top. Finish it off with some shaved parmesan and enjoy!
