Friday Night Pizza: Pesto and Pepperoni



I'm not going to aknowledge the crappy pictures anymore.  I'll just let it be the elephant in the room.

We've started a tradition of having pizza every Friday night and watching a movie with the Family.  Sometimes we order pizza usually, with the tight budget I just make it which seems to actually be easier because then no one has to go out and get it and we don't have to pay extra for delivery.  So, here it is!

Last week I tried a new combo and it was really god so try it--very few ingredients and it comes together really fast.  (Especially if you use store-bought dough, which I did)

Pesto Pepperoni Pizza
3 heaping Tb Pesto (I used homemade from the freezer but storebought wouldn't hurt anything)
8-10 oz pepperoni
1 shallot, minced
1 package pizza dough or one homemade dough
2 cups mozzarella cheese

Preheat the oven to 425.  Press the dough down on a cookie sheet and bake the crust for 8 minutes.  Bring the crust out and top with pesto sauce, then pepperoni, then the minced shallots, then the shredded cheese.  Bake it again for another 8 minutes or until the cheese is melted.  yum!
