We decided to take a break and make a yummy pesto flat bread pizza! It's super easy and really tasty :)
The tomato slices on top are from our own tomato garden!
*Preheat oven to 425 degrees
You can buy Naan flat bread or thin pizza crusts from your local market. You can also buy pesto sauce or make your own, we made our own:
Ingredients
Flat bread or thin pizza crust
monterey jack cheese
tomatoes
(pesto ingredients)
2 cups fresh basil
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
4 garlic cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
couple cracks black pepper
1/2 cup good olive oil
Directions
Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Puree until the mixture forms a smooth, thick paste.
Spread a thin layer of pesto on your think pizza or flat bread. Then sprinkle about 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese, then about 3 oz or so of grated monterey jack cheese, then top with thinly sliced tomato.
Put in oven directly on rack in the center of the oven for about 6 minutes or so (watch it, as it depends on your oven.) When the cheese has melted and is all bubbly, it's finished!
It is sooooo tasty- you will LOVE LOVE LOVE this!
peace~love~happiness,
