This was tasty (and totally unlike any pizza I've ever tried before). Loved the tang of mustard in the sauce! I subbed prosciutto for the ham and used a pre-baked crust.

Made this pizza and loved it! I like the fact that it is not traditional 'tomato base' pizza recipe. I will defiantly make it again!
