Fig, Prosciutto and Goat Cheese Grilled Pizza | The perfect balance of salty and sweet! This light and fresh pizza is perfect for dinner or an appetizer.It was such a beautiful weekend here in Colorado and I took full advantage of it by spending as much time as I could outside. I’m well aware that these perfect 80 degree days are numbered and will soon be replace with 50 degree days. I refuse to let the stores deny me of my last few weeks of summer by putting out their pumpkins, fall candles, and yes even Halloween costumes. I’m fighting back by eating all the ice cream and summer produce I can, parading around in my tank tops, shorts and sandals, and grilling anything and everything. There’s no better way to keep summer alive than by lighting up that grill!

This light and fresh pizza is perfect for dinner or an appetizer.When there isn’t chicken or fish on our grill, the next thing you’ll find is pizza. This Fig, Prosciutto and Goat Cheese Grilled Pizza has quickly become one of my favorites during the short fresh fig season. I’m also digging these grilled figs stuffed with goat cheese to have with my pizza!

This light and fresh pizza is perfect for dinner or an appetizer.There’s no sauce on this pizza, just a little olive oil brushed on top of the grilled crust. While the crust is still hot sprinkle on the parmesan cheese, the good stuff, not that powdered crap in the green can. Since there aren’t many ingredients on this pizza, you want to use the best quality you can find and afford. Once the parmesan cheese is on add the sliced fresh figs, strips of prosciutto and crumbled goat cheese.

Just before serving the pizza toss the arugula in fresh lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper. You don’t want to do this in advance or the arugula will wilt.

This Fig, Prosciutto and Goat Cheese Grilled Pizza won’t leave you feeling bloated and stuffed afterwards either. It’s light, fresh and the perfect dinner or appetizer to enjoy al fresco during the last few weeks of summer!
