    The inspiration behind this recipe:

    This is a recipe I've been meaning to bring to you for a very LONG time.  However, with everything else going on around here, making pizza dough just seemed like too much work!

    My stepchildren and I had a difficult time bonding when my husband and I first got married.  Yeah, a stepmom isn't exactly every child's dream.  However, one of the things we started doing to have some fun and just relax as a blended family was "Make Your Own Pizza" night.  We would get all the fixings together and then use flatbread, pitas or naans for the crust so everyone could create their own personal pizzas.  We all had a great time!

    Thanks to a recent MYOP night, I remembered we had several packages of naan in the freezer.  It's so perfect as a quickie pizza crust!

    How to make Flatbread Potato Pizza with Pesto and Smoked Mozzarella:

    Here's all you do for this naan potato pizza....

    • Roast potato slices in extra-virgin olive oil, salt and pepper and plenty of fresh rosemary until they're tender but not browned or potato chip-like.

    Photo of thinly sliced red potatoes sprinkled with rosemary being drizzled with olive oil.

    • Spread pesto over the naan.  I used Radish Greens Pesto we had in our freezer.  Radish season is coming up quickly so be sure to make some!  It's perfect here!  Not so sure basil pesto would work as basil and rosemary don't sound like a great combination.  However, you could use kale or spinach pesto.
    • Top with smoked Mozzarella (or smoked Provolone or smoked Gouda), red onion slices, the taters, a bit more cheese and....

      This pizza was amazing! I found it the perfect use of your radish top pesto which I just made, since it mellows out the sharpness. I don’t eat dairy so I used my favorite cashew mozzarella and this was perfect. My family loves it as well! Thanks.
