PESTO POTATO PIZZA

Last Night I Made:
PESTO POTATO PIZZA for DINNER.
Whole Foods Pizza dough, homemade pesto, thinly sliced potatoes, Tofurky Italian sausage, red chili pepper flakes, red onion, and pine nuts.

For the pesto, process 2 cups basil, olive oil,pine nuts, garlic, salt and pepper until completely processed.

Next step is to slice and season the potatoes with salt and pepper.
Then sear until lightly browned on each side in a skillet with olive oil.

For the pizza dough , stretch the dough by hand until desired size.
Place on cookie sheet and spread pesto and the rest of the toppings.
Brush olive oil on the edges.
Bake in a 450 degree oven for 10 minutes or until edges are light browned.

Once out of the oven, drizzle some more olive oil over pizza, cut into slices and enjoy!!!

I love the simplicity of this, esp on a Friday night. Tofurky Italian sausages are a new one to me though. Thanks for sharing.
