Smoked Salmon and Avocado Pizza with a herb cream cheese base and peppery arugula leaves.
It occurred to me in a disturbing way that I’m always sharing pizza type recipes, like the Barbecue Chicken Pizza Pull Apart Bread and that Barbecue Chicken Pizzadilla…or the Cheesy Pizza Pull Apart Bread. Then there was those Margarita Pizza Stuffed Chicken Breasts, that was kinda pizza-genius. But there is not one single pizza recipe on my blog.
Pizza Recipe
So cheesy and full of healthy good-for-you-stuff, this pizza is incredible. After making the Smoked Salmon And Avocado Grilled Cheese, you’ve been asking for more of the same flavour combination!
Well. This was it. Perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Fresh smoked salmon slices drizzled with a little lemon juice.
A wholemeal/wholewheat pizza base or a flour tortilla….already made and perfect for throwing whatever toppings your heart desires…drizzled with a little garlic olive oil. The perfect cream cheese mixture with garlic and dill spread onto a pizza base.
Topped with onion rings and cheese and finally topped with the smoked salmon, avocado and fresh rocket/arugula leaves. With a shake or 7 of lemon pepper and a drizzle of lemon juice, this pizza went like crazy. At this point…you can serve how it is!
OR!
Sprinkle a little extra cheese over the top and place back into the oven for extra melty cheese and warmed through avocado and salmon. The choice is yours.

Best pizza ever!!! Flavor combination was exquisite!! As the recipe indicated, I prebaked the crust and then just baked the finished pizza 5 minute to melt the cheese. The salmon and avocados were just warm. Soo yummy!
I love pizza, smoked salmon and avocados, and this recipe cought my eye. I skept on the arugula though as I didn’t have any. Al the flavors blend so well that I couldn’t help but eat the hole pizza. Note: instead of pizza dough I used naan bread. Highly recommended. It’s exquisite!
Made the Salmon pizza, used Honey Smoked salmon from Costco….added more garlic and it was delish !!! Used pre made dough from the market so made the crust as thin as possible and did it on the pizza stone on the BBQ….the men loved it !!!!!
Leftovers for lunch today – thank you for such a great recipe !!!
