Lovely so far! I really like the idea of raspberry balsamic with goat's cheese.

We often make a pizza with a classic pesto sauce, sliced roasted beetroot and goats cheese....its a lovely combination.

They were a huge hit.

I did one pizza with a beet pesto and one with a mozzarella base (no sauce). The beet pesto pizza was Colleen and I's preferred pizza. It was more complex, lots of flavor. Jake and Senika preferred the other pizza because the goat cheese stood out a little bit more (jake doesn't care for beets, but still enjoyed both pizzas).

The raspberry balsamic glaze was a huge hit. Paired fantastic with both pizza's. It was simple, just time consuming to make. It took about an hour on simmer with constant stirring to get it to the texture that I wanted. 1 cup of balsamic vinegar, 4 ounces of raspberries, sugar, and a touch of chili flakes. I went really mild on the chili flakes and it didn't really heat up the glaze like I wanted. I was afraid to overpower it. We just added chili flakes to the pizza after it cooked.

I crumbled walnuts, toasted them, and added them to pizza after they cooked. WOW...........

The arugula was a perfect pairing with the pizza!
