It's easy to make, especially if you cheat like I do and buy the roll-out Pillsbury Pizza Dough. I suppose you could also buy pre-made Pesto, but where's the fun in that?
Pesto Sauce:
Ingredients:
Pine Nuts
Fresh Basil
Olive Oil
Parmesan Cheese
Lemon
2 Cloves Garlic
Basically, just put all of these in a food processor. Like always, I didn't measure anything. I used a big handful of Basil, a small handful of pine nuts, about a half cup of olive oil, and a small handful of cheese. Squeeze half a lemon into it. Add some salt and pepper to taste.
Pizza:
Ingredients:
Pesto Sauce
1 Pillsbury pre-made pizza dough
Parmesan, Romano, and Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
1/4 Red Onion
Zucchini
Eggplant
1 Romano Tomato
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Chop into small pieces the zucchini, onion and the eggplant. Slice the tomato to make little circles. On a greased baking sheet, roll out the pre-made pizza dough. Spread the pesto sauce on the pizza dough. Cover the pesto with your three cheeses, then top that off with pieces of the onion, eggplant, zucchini, and tomato. Stick it in the over for 15-20 mins, and you have your pizza. Serve with a side of love.

I want to eat this. Will you make it for me, please? Trader Joe's sells whole wheat pizza crust for 99 cents.
Hi Sassy!
Just randomly (somewhat drunkenly) checking blogs and stumbled across yours.
Your pizza sound great!
In case you're interested I recently tried my hand at home-made crust... pretty simple....
180 ml of warm tap water ~ microwaved for about 45 sec.
Add 3 Tblspoons w/ 1 packet of dry yeast. wait 1 minute and stir.
Add to 2 1/4 cups of all purpose flour, 1 tsp salt.
Knead for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle additional flour on it as neccessary... if it gets sticky.
Pour a little olive oil in a bowl and place balled up dough. Set on top of stove (preferrably over the eye that vents the oven w/ the oven on) to rise for 1 hour.
Knead another couple of minutes and roll out flat. Again, add flour as needed if sticky.
Stretch or roll until it fits pan. Bake at 475 for 5-7 minutes and remove from oven. Add toppings (pesto sounds awesome), and return to oven for 5- 8 minutes until golden crust and melted cheese.
Just in case you were interested.
