Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 (14-16 ounce) ball store bought or homemade pizza dough, divided in half
  • 6 tablespoons Buitoni Pesto with Basil
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, (halved)
  • 1 cup charred sweet corn ((about 2 ears; see notes on how to char))
  • 1 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese
  • 4 ounces sliced fresh mozzarella cheese or fresh mozzarella balls
  • salt and pepper
  • 4 basil leaves, torn
  • Parmesan for serving

Instruction

  • Preheat oven as high as your oven will go (450-500 degrees F). Place your pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven 30 minutes before cooking to get it hot.
  • Divide pizza dough in half. Roll out each ball of dough in a circle on parchment paper to 1/4 inch thick. Spread each dough circle with 3 tablespoons of basil pesto. Sprinkle each pizza with 1/2 cup of tomatoes, 1/2 cup of corn, 1/2 cup of Colby Jack cheese, and 2 ounces of mozzarella.
  • Carefully place the parchment on the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet and bake for 8-12 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh basil and Parmesan for serving.
