Grilled Italian Pesto Pizza

 

1/2

cup basil pesto

1

package (14 oz) prebaked original Italian pizza crust or other 12-inch ready-to-serve pizza crust

2

cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 oz)

3

large plum (Roma) tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch slices

1/2

cup whole basil leaves

1/4

cup shredded Parmesan cheese

• 1 Heat gas or charcoal grill. Brush pesto over pizza crust. Sprinkle 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese over pesto. Arrange tomato slices and basil leaves on cheese. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese and the Parmesan cheese.
