Pesto Naan Pizza

Pesto Naan Pizza

Naan pizza / a quick weekday meal that comes together almost effortlessly. Satisfy that pizza craving without leaving the house with this homemade pizza. For this pizza I decided to adventure out of the classic margherita (which is hands down my favorite by the way). The combination of pesto, mozzarella, and ricotta in this pizza is just so flavorful and extra savory with mushrooms and Italian sausage.

Ingredients:
– Naan
– Pesto
– Mushrooms
– Italian sausage (sweet or spicy, I used a mixture of both)
– Mozzarella (fresh or shredded, I used fresh mozzarella for this because I love the way the it melts on pizza)
– Ricotta
– Red onions (sliced)
– Extra virgin olive oil
– Basil


Instructions:
– Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
– Cut Italian sausage
– Heat skillet, add olive oil, and cook Italian sausage, breaking it up into smaller pieces as it cooks
– Add sliced mushrooms and cook the sausage/mushroom mixture until sausage is fully cooked
– Lightly spray a sheet pan with olive oil (or pizza stone if you have one)
– Generously spread pesto over the naan
– Add mushroom/sausage mixture onto naan
– Add fresh mozzarella
– Add sliced red onions
– Add 1-3 spoonfuls of ricotta
– Lightly drizzle olive oil over the ricotta
– Bake the naan pizza for about 8 minutes or until golden brown on the edges
– Top pizza with fresh basil
– Cut for serving and enjoy!
