So, I’ve been a very bad blogger lately. I’ve had weddings every weekend for the past month (which is great), but that does not leave much time during the week to experiment with new recipes. Today my twins asked for grilled cheese. Now, I love a good grilled cheese as much as the next person, but I just wasn’t feeling it today. So I scrounged through my cupboards and came up with this quick, throw together pizza and ate half of it myself for lunch. It was quite delicious. Try it when you need something in a hurry, you won’t regret it.
Apple, Gorgonzola and Artichoke Pizza
1 Boboli thin pizza crust
1 T olive oil
1 large apple peeled and thinly sliced (I like something tart, but it’s completely up to you)
1 cup Gorgonzola cheese crumbles
1 small can mushrooms
1 can artichoke hearts
1/4 cup pine nuts (candied pecans would be better, but I didn’t have those)
1 T honey
3 t lemon juice
3 t Dijon mustard
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place crust on baking sheet. Spread oil over crust. Arrange apple slices on crust. Sprinkle with cheese. Sprinkle mushrooms, artichoke hearts and pine nuts on next. Bake for 8-11 minutes. I cooked mine for 8 and it could have used another 4-5 minutes, but that’s just my oven. While cooking, combine honey, lemon juice and mustard and whisk together. Set aside. Remove pizza from oven and drizzle with honey mixture. Cut into wedges and enjoy! Mmmm….

My boyfriend and I LOVE trying unusual combos on pizzas — this one rocks!
Thanks for the recipe…

Looks delicious!
As a pizza-fiend I love this so much! Must try.
Looks amazing! I might have to try this soon!
miiii ….seems to be delicious.
i’ll send pictures of my pizzas very soon.
from italy with love…..
Did you use a sweet apple or a tart apple? I’d try a tart first, myself, to set off the gorgonzola.
i think i had a gala left over and used that, but i would definitely use a granny smith or honeycrisp if i had one in the house 🙂 it’s funny, all of a sudden this post has gone viral. i’ve had a ton of hits on this today 🙂 enjoy!
I think “freshly pressed” brought a lot of people here. Great post!
oo this looks wonderful!
This looks delicious- definitely a combination I have to try now!
wooowww!! It looks really delicious!! SO yum!! Thanks for sharing.. 😀
This look divine! I’m a sucker for uniquely delicious pizzas
This is amazingly delicious.
My goodness. I love pizza as a delicious way to use up odds and ends in the kitchen, but I never would have thought of this combination. Looks amazing. Maybe I’ll have to splurge on pine nuts soon…
Sounds amazing…Ummm, except for the artichokes though! But it’s worth a try!
This sounds absolutely wonderful! I’ll have to try it for myself.
Tried it and loved it!
i’m so glad! it is a great recipe and so easy to throw together 🙂
Yum! I frequently have these ingredients, but would have never thought to use them this way! Fancy-pants pizza. Love it.
I’m cheap, and frequently use left-over pita bread instead of the traditional crust. I’ll definitely be giving this combo a go (with the pita substitution).
Love your blog and I am new follower, as well as a new blogger and I must say…….Oh my gosh! That looks amazing and all the things I love! I am definitely going to make this!
What a wonderful idea, and also, it totally has the right kind of stimulating flavours for perking someone up in the wintertime.
This looks so delicious! Have you made any other unique pizza combinations?
kathy, i have an old shrimp on the grill pizza and then check out today’s post, i just posted it. 🙂 enjoy!
Hmm – this can be a use
for those pickeled roasted
artichokes I’ve been wondering
what to to do with.
yum!
Unusual combination…I make my own dessert pizzas/focaccias. It’s always good to try different combos.

That looks delicious. A nice glass of Mascato would go great with this!
That sounds super! And it includes some of my favorite things! (ie stuff I probably shouldn’t eat, hehe). Great photos too!
Mmmm! This sounds wonderful!
That looks great!
what a yummy fall recipe! Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to trying it!

Would love to try one… Your shots made it look more delicious! Yummy! 🙂
I’m broke, but I’m heading out of my tiny French apartment to visit the markets, and I’m going to use my tiny French kitchen with no oven to attempt to make this amazing pizza using an electric stove that takes an hour twenty to heat up, a microwave and no knife… wish me luck everyone… things are going to get cavegirl-delicious!
” Mom, could you make pizza like this one ” I said to my mom when i saw this images.
It must be delicious. yummy 🙂
Great Post And Recipes.
Thanks for your sharing. Maybe I try this by myself.
Seem so delicious…
Fantastic idea for a hearty pizza 🙂 I might try this one day 🙂 Thanks for the lovely idea!
Interesting – I’ve had scarring experiences with gorgonzola!
What a great combo! Sounds and looks delicious!
I’m make pizza all the time, this will be my next one! Yum
This looks and sounds amazing! I will definitely be trying this very soon…
I say this with LOVE…you are just strange! 🙂 But I like it! Congrats on being FP!
i take it as a compliment, who wants to be like everyone else 🙂 now, if i was only hip enough to know what FP stands for… 🙂
FP= Freshly Pressed my friend! You were deemed worthy! 🙂
thanks for letting me know, someone else mentioned that too, so i started looking for where it says that i was chosen for that. still can’t find it, but i’ll take it. craziness on the blog the past 3 days. i normally only have family and a few friends/clients who check out my blog on a daily basis, so it’s been great being able to reach more people and feel like i’m not just doing this for myself 🙂 anyway, hopefully you enjoy the pizza 🙂 take care
always looking for a taste-bud treat…esp. after a long day at daycare!
These flavours sound so delicious together!! I love gorgonzola and your photos are so appetising – I might have to try this out in the very near future… Congratulations on being Freshly Pressed!
thank you! it is a great meal, easy and quick. i’m trying to find where it says i am “freshly pressed”…does it show up somewhere on my dashboard i wonder?
this looks amazing!
looks really good, hopefully i can make it

this is really easy to make. the pre-made crust is a great cheat and time saver. almost everything else comes out of a can 🙂 enjoy it!
I read the name of your Pizza to Hubz and he said “TONIGHT?” In a voice that resembled a 5 year old that was just told we were going to Disneyland 🙂 I cannot wait to try this!!
it is very easy and so very good. i hope your hubby enjoys it! let me know 🙂
Helpfuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuul…. 🙂
Looks delish! Thanks for sharing.
YUMMY!! That looks good.
Can’t imagine apples on pizza but that looks super delicious, thanks for sharing!
Did you use red or green apples? Green might give a nice tangy twist to the recipe. 🙂
i believe when i made this i had a bunch of gala apples left in the house, but i would definitely make it with granny smith or honey crisp the next time 🙂
Nice pizza
Looks delicious!!!!
I’m gonna try it…
Eek. What a combo! How did you think of that?
i actually saw a recipe for a pizza with pears and gorgonzola, i just happened to have these items in the house 🙂 it’s really good 🙂
It sounds good without apple 🙂
I wonder how that taste ?
This looks delicious! I can’t wait to make it 🙂
Woah apples on pizza? I’ve never heard of that before but will definitely have to try it out!
Definitely will be trying this.
thanks a lot
nice
Clever clever clever!! The marriage of these ingredients is beautiful and I love the use of fruit in savoury recipes!
To steal or not to steal…
Stealing.
This one’s a must try in my messy old beginner’s kitchen. :]
Might try cooking this one for host family!
Kudos to you.
oh Lord, that pizza looks delicious! I’m going to have to try it!!
Lovely and unusual combination! I will try this definitely! x

That looks delicious! I’m salivating. Probably doesn’t help that I’m sitting at work Google-ing dinner ideas and I’ve yet to have lunch, but at least I know what I’m making tonight!
LOoks yummy and easy. I love your honey, lemon juice and Dijon sauce 🙂
