Naan pesto pizza

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat while maintaining meltiness.

pepperoni

🥗Healthier: turkey pepperoni

💰Cheaper: salami

Turkey pepperoni is lower in fat and calories.

pizza sauce

🥗Healthier: homemade tomato sauce

💰Cheaper: canned tomato sauce

Homemade sauce can be fresher and lower in preservatives.

fresh basil

🥗Healthier: spinach

💰Cheaper: dried basil

Dried basil is more shelf-stable and less expensive.

Grab your naan and place it into an oven-safe pan.

Spread pesto onto the naan.

In an oiled small pan on medium heat, add your vegetables: peppers, onions, garlic, and tomatoes.

Cook the vegetables until softened.

Chop up fresh mozzarella and place it on top of the pesto naan base.

Add the cooked vegetables on top of the mozzarella.

Sprinkle a pinch or a teaspoon of salt, oregano, basil, thyme, and red chili flakes on top.

Put the assembled naan pizza into the microwave oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.

Once done, the cheese should be a beautiful golden brown.
