For the toppings:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 lb. mushrooms sliced
1/4 of a red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup pesto (homemade or store-bought)
8 oz. provolone cheese, shredded
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. Take all of the steps to prepare your pizza dough. Pizza dough recipe here.

2. Preheat your oven 450

3. In a skillet melt the butter over medium heat and then add the sliced mushrooms and onions. Cook through, stir occasionally. Cook until the mushrooms are softened and brown.

4. Flatten your pizza dough in a pizza pan or cookie sheet pan.

5. Spread pesto sauce over the dough just like you would pizza sauce. Then spread the mushroom and onion mixture over the pesto sauce evenly and then top that off with the provolone and parmesan cheeses.

6. Bake until the crust edges are brown and the cheese is a golden brown in some spots. (Usually somewhere between 8-12 min.)

7. Slice and Enjoy!


This is definitely a Jon and Jess favorite! I made it last night for dinner and our mouths were just watering for more! It has great rich flavor, the pesto sauce is so yummy!
Try it out! Maybe this weekend? :) You won't regret it!
