Salad pizza? Pizza salad? Whatever you’d like to call it, turning your favorite salad into a pizza is a terrific idea!
Too bad it wasn’t mine. I can’t recall where I originally saw the inspiration for this easy pizza, but I’m happy the concept stuck in my mind.
Mediterranean Shrimp Salad Pizza
I’m a big Mediterranean salad fan, so it was a natural choice for my salad pizza – pizza salad.
Mediterranean Shrimp Salad
All I had to do was combine the salad ingredients in a bowl, top a pre-made pizza crust with a simple dressing, then spread my salad on top. That’s what I call a pizza salad . . . salad pizza . . .

Me either, but I saw it somewhere and it stuck in my memory, unlike everything else that seems to get easily forgotten.
Nice turn out of the salad for making a meal, the shrimps looks so fresh and tempting to me plus all the veg inside.

I think a pizza salad one would be good too, don’t you?
Wow, that looks beyond delicious! I’m really intrigued by yogurt cheese, never had it! Great recipe, thank you for sharing

I’m hooked on the stuff. It’s so easy to make – a carton of yogurt and cheesecloth. Just drain for up to 24 hours, depending on how thick you want it. We like ours the consistency of a really thick Greek yogurt. Hubby loves it topped with fruit, nuts and honey. Have a great weekend!
Oo – nice pizza! A great sophisticated twist.

I love this idea, and I wish I am not allergic to shrimps! It’s a big bummer for me. Fortunately, my little boy has no food allergies.
Thank you for sharing!
