Fun Fall Recipes: Gourmet White Pizza

Who doesn't love pizza? This recipe was inspired by a trip to Wegman's supermarket last week. I ran in for a few items for homemade vegetable soup and saw the most gorgeous fresh basil ever. I had to buy it. I'd figure out what to do with it later, I told myself! Here is what it became!

I use three cheeses for this:

Organic Ricotta

Mozzarella

Fresh Pecorino (The Cheese Guy)

Fresh Basil Pesto:

2 cups fresh basil leaves, packed

1/2 cup freshly grated Romano or Parmesan

1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

1/3 cup pine nuts

3 garlic cloves

1/4 tsp salt

1/8 tsp ground black pepper

Throw all ingredients into a food processor and blend until smooth. Delicious as the base for white pizza!
