Description

Ingredients

• 1 tube refrigerated pizza dough (or homemade)
• ⅓ cup prepared pesto
• 1½ cups mozzarella cheese
• 1 large handful of fresh basil leaves
• 6-7 large grape tomatoes, sliced
• ½ red onion, sliced
• ½ cup balsamic vinegar

Directions

• Preheat oven according to pizza dough directions (mine was 425 degrees).
• Pour balsamic vinegar into a small sauce pan and place over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally until balsamic vinegar reduces and thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. This usually takes about 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile roll out pizza dough onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread pesto evenly over the dough, then top with 1 cup cheese, the basil, tomatoes, and red onion. Sprinkle with remaining half cup of cheese.
• Bake pizza in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and slice. Drizzle balsamic reduction over each slice before serving. Enjoy!
