Prosciutto Pesto Pizza

"This is an original recipe that combines many of my favorite flavors. The saltiness from the proscuitto and pesto combined with the sweet sundried tomatoes is a little party in your mouth with each bite. Hubby asks for this once a week...and it never gets old. Leftovers are great too...if you have any!"

  1. Wonderful recipe, I didnt have any ricotta (yes, I will pick some up for the next time i make this) but used a bit more pesto and Parmigiano-Reggiano than called for plus I also added a few pieces of artichoke hearts. It was excellent and was quickly scribed into my favourite recipes book.
     
  2. Delicious! This is now one of my favorites pizzas! Thanks for the recipe!!
