This is a different twist on a traditional pizza, but the combo of flavors go so well together.

Ingredients
28-inchPizza Crust(or whatever size you have - just adjust toppings accordingly)
3-4Figs or Dates(sliced or chopped)
4slicesTempeh Bacon(chopped)
2handfulsArugula
1cupBalsamic Vinegar
Cheese Sauce
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350
First make a batch of the cheese sauce.
Next you'll start the balsamic glaze. Add 1 cup of balsamic vinegar to a pot over medium heat and bring to boil. Once the vinegar is boiling, give it a stir. Keep an eye on it, stirring occasionally until it starts to thicken up. Once it starts to thicken up, turn the heat down to low and then remove from heat at desired consistency. If you heat too long, it will become to thick to drizzle over the pizza.
While the balsamic is cooking, start building your pizza. First do a layer of cheese sauce, then add your figs and tempeh bacon pieces around.
Put the pizzas in the oven and bake for 12 minutes. Then put a handful of arugula on each pizza and bake for another 3 minutes.
Once the arugula has wilted, pull the pizzas out and top with the balsamic glaze. I use a spoon to drizzle it over the pizza.
