Pizza with California Prune Jam, Balsamic-glazed Bacon, and Fresh Mint
This simple prune jam adds a sweet and tangy hit to a pizza studded with bacon and mint in this dinner recipe. La tur is a French cheese that’s rich and creamy yet mild enough to let the subtle flavors of the prunes come through. If you can’t find la tur, feel free to substitute brie.
