I don’t know how many times I have mentioned how much I love cheese and pesto. I could eat them every day for two weeks without getting tired of them. My friends know that one of the best ways to get me into a good mood is to give me anything that has pesto or cheese on it. They used to bribe me with pesto pasta just to persuade me to go out on a Friday night with them. Funny!
It used to work too until I discovered I could make one mean pesto and that I didn’t need their bribe to give me my favorite food.
Just this recently, a friend came over to my house to “use my kitchen”. That friend was my best friend who wanted to try making something and wanted me to be the taste tester. As usual, I was willing because my best friend’s a really good cook. It turned out it was a simple homemade pesto chicken pizza. She said she found a recipe for it a few days ago and instantly remembered me. The only difference between her version and this recipe though was the pesto she used. She used my pesto stock in the fridge. It turned out really great and one bite was enough to send me to Happyland!

Quick Tip: Use your favorite pizza dough recipe or cheat a bit. Some grocers offer pre-made pizza dough, portioned out, that has not yet been baked. For example, at our local Publix grocery stores we can find it in a small refrigerator that’s located in the bakery section.
