Cheese and Pesto Naan Pizza

Wegman's is more than just a grocery store. It's a marketing powerhouse. Why else would I even consider buying a $4 package of strange, ethnic flat bread and making it into our dinner? Because Danny and his fancy cooks have made it look delicious, that's why.

INGREDIENTS

1 package garlic NAAN bread (if you have Wegman's, you've no doubt seen it. And if you don't... it's an ethnic flat bread- try the bread aisle?)
1 cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1/4 cup prepared pesto

DIRECTIONS

Place the two pieces of Naan bread on a baking sheet. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spread pesto over bread. Top with mozzarella cheese, and then parmesan. Bake until edges of cheese are browned and pizza is warmed through.

VERDICT

This was very simple and easy to make- and it was delicious! I used pizza cheese instead of plain mozzarella, and the taste of the garlic naan added a lot of flavor too. Even the kids ate the "green pizza." The only downside was the size. One pizza is not filling enough for adults!
