Pesto

Ingredients:

• Fresh basil
• Cheese (feta or Parmesan)
• Olive oil
• Almonds (or walnuts)
• Garlic (powder)
• Salt
• Pepper

Preparation:

Blend all ingredients together until a paste is formed. Add olive oil according to the smoothness you prefer. You can add to home made pizza or pasta, or simply eat with toasted bread.

Pizza on bread

Instead of pizza dough we use some bread from Trader Joe's. Usual toppings - onion, mushroom, tomato, pesto, peppers, cheese - and you can add your favorite as well.

Add your topping on the bread. Preheat oven to 400F and allow to bake for ~15mins.

Pizza

Well, not really Indian or Mexican but home made! The best place to get dough is Trader Joe's, they have nice bags! Spread out on an oven pan (grease it with some Pam or other non-stick otherwise hard to remove!)

Chop your fresh veggies, mushroom and anything else! Mushrooms, onions, peppers and tomatoes for us.

Grate some mozzarella. You can also use fresh mozzarella.

Try different varieties. Top off with cilantro or basil.
