I like to experiment with new recipes, lucky for me Nick enjoys trying the new recipes and helping out with them too. A few recipes that we really enjoy, stick around and are repeated. This recipe we have made 3-4 times already. It's great! The toppings can easily be changed to your likings, but Nick and I really enjoy the toppings it calls for. It's great in the late summer when the tomatoes in the garden are ripe and the basil is lush. There is something about the fired crust of the pizza, the grilled veggies and fresh basil that screams summer.
Try it out on a summer day, or to help cure your summer fever... which we deffinetly have.
