Take the chill off and serve up great German deli flavor with this savory, cheesy pizza. It has a tender crust and mild, mustardy bite that all ages can appreciate. Cindy Reams - Philipsburg, Pennsylvania

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.
