Provided by Rosemary Molloy

Categories     Main Course

Time 32m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pizza dough ((either a good store bought or homemade))
5 tablespoons arugula pesto ((or basil if you prefer))
1 cup shredded firm mozzarella
2-3 ripe but firm tomatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
pinch salt

Steps:

  • Make homemade Pizza Dough as per instructions, let dough** rest for approximately 15-20 minutes before rolling
  • Pre heat oven to 425 F (220 C).
  • Shape the dough into a lightly greased pizza or cookie sheet, spread the Arugula Pesto or Basil Pesto (if you prefer) on top, then top with shredded mozzarella and sliced tomatoes. Drizzle with a tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with a little salt. Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes or until crust is baked and cheese is melted. Let sit 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
  • **Whether store bought or homemade pizza dough should rest for approximately 20 minutes before shaping into a round or oval shape. It keeps the dough from springing back when shaping.
