Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 425°F (220°C). While that’s warming up, mix together the mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, chopped basil, and a pinch of salt and pepper to make a flavorful basil mayo. Spread about half of this mayo over your pizza, then scatter the tomatoes on top. Pop the pizza in the oven and bake for 5 minutes. After that, add the arugula, spinach, and bacon, then bake for another 5 minutes until everything is nicely warmed and the bacon is a bit crispy. Once it’s out of the oven, layer on the sliced avocado and drizzle the rest of the basil mayo over the top. Serve right away and enjoy!

How to serve
Serve this pizza with a simple green salad or a light soup to keep the meal fresh and balanced. A chilled glass of white wine or sparkling water with lemon pairs well with the vibrant flavors.
Storage & leftovers
