This is tasty and so easy to make - a great idea when you don't have a lot of time to get dinner on the table. I heated up some red sauce for dipping, and we were happy!

Made this after Liza's suggestion in her blog and I was so happy with the results. I used some pizza dough from Trader Joe's and poked a few holes in the top to let some steam escape. The leftovers are greated heated in the microwave too!

Very easy recipe and easy to modify! I used turkey, ham, mozzarella and provolone and added red onions and sun dried tomatoes to the pesto. Very quick to put together and DH was very impressed!
