Ingredients
- 2 Whole Wheat Naan Bread (Usually comes in packs of 2, and can be found at most heath food stores)-2 Tbsp. "Napolean" Green Pesto Paste(this is actually lower calories than the sauce listed for nutritional calculations)- 2 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil- 1 cup Fresh Spinach (chopped)- 1/2 cup Fresh Crimini Mushrooms (sliced)- 3/4 cup Yellow Bell Pepper (diced, or cut in strips, your preference)- 1/4 cup Red Onion (diced)- 1oz. Part0Skim Mozzarella Cheese (shredded) (optional)
-Preheat oven to BROIL.
-In a small bowl mix together 2 Tbsp olive oil with 2 Tbsp Green Pesto Paste.
-Place the two Naan breads on the cookie sheet flat side down (no need to grease pan). Spread the pesto mixture evenly over bread using the back of a spoon.
-Put bread in the oven for 3 minutes. This sets the flavor into bread, and gives the crust more crunch.
-While bread is cooking, chop your vegetables (Spinach, Mushrooms, Yellow Peppers, and Red Onions) and grate 1 oz. Mozzarella Cheese.
-Lower oven temperature to 400F.
-Remove the bread from the oven, and begin to layer fresh vegetables( spinach and mushrooms should go down first so they don't dry out, then the peppers and onions).
-Sprinkle the cheese over both pizzas.
-Place pan in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until vegetables look cooked and pizza crust is toasted.
-Remove from oven, let set for about 1 minute.
-Cut each pizza into 4 pieces. Each serving is two pieces.
-Serve hot and yummy!
