I love love love pizza – both homemade and restaurant-made. Pizza is on our menu at least once a week, whether it’s homemade, take-out, dine-out, or even (gasp!) the occasional frozen pizza.
No shame in enjoying one of those every now and then, am I right? =) Making homemade pizzas is one of my favorite family dinner ideas, as you can customize them so there’s something appealing for everyone in the household.
I tend to make something fairly traditional for my husband and kids, as they like cheese, pepperoni, sausage or meatball pizzas the best, and then something more veggie-heavy for myself, like this awesome Arugula, Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Pizza.
This pizza is divine – truly, one of the tastiest flavor combinations I’ve had on a vegetarian pizza. Creamy, rich goat cheese, sweet caramelized onion, + peppery arugula on a crisp, flavorful multigrain flatbread crust.
While I usually make my own pizza dough (from this recipe – the most popular recipe on my blog!), this particular pizza is one that I actually *prefer* with a store-bought multigrain flatbread crust (this Stonefire one is my favorite!), as the flavor + texture combination between the crust and the toppings is simply perfect.
So, next time you’re looking for an amazingly delicious, meat-free, quick-to-make pizza, give this awesome recipe a try!

Arugula, Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Pizza
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Put the oil and onions in a medium skillet and cook over very low heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and caramelized, about 15 minutes.
- Turn the heat up to medium and add the arugula. Cook until the arugula is wilted, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Spread the onion/arugula mixture over the crust, and top with generous, evenly-spaced crumbles of the goat cheese.
- Place the pizza on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the crust is heated through and the cheese is starting to soften + brown.
- Remove from the oven, allow to cool for a minute or two, then cut into 8 slices and serve warm.
