Homemade Pizza!!

I haven't blogged in a while and could be because I have been busy or I have eaten out to much!:) I had fresh mozzarella in my fridge from Costco tonight.  I was going to make a pasta a friend told me about in the store with sausage, shrimp, basil, tomatoes, garlic ... doesn't that sound yummy. Well,  I decided I wanted something a bit quicker and since another friend told me to use Naan , which is an Indian bread found in the bakery section as a base for pizza. I had dinner planned in a second.  I served with a romaine and Boston bib salad with a simple oil vinaigrette.

Naan Pizza

Naan Bread which is like a pita bread.
Fresh Mozzarella
Fresh Basil
Tomatoes
garlic
oil
oregano


First, I put the Naan on a pizza baker. I brushed with olive oil which I had mixed with garlic and oregano. I broiled in my oven for about 2 minutes each side to crisp up.

Then I cut up the tomatoes for the pizza. I used a vine rip tomatoes which was very good on the pizza.
Cut up the mozzarella into thin pieces which can be very challenging!!! Maddie loves to taste the mozzarella as I cut it up. That's a great picture!! Ha Ha


Next, take the bread out of the oven and layer with tomatoes, mozzarella, and chopped fresh basil. Ryan added fresh jalapenos on his from our garden. Maddie and I aren't into that much spice:)

Turn the oven to 350 and bake for about 15 minutes. DELISH. It was fresh and had all the tastes of summer with the basil and tomato. Enjoy
