Pesto Chicken Or Shrimp Pizza
Came up with this one for pizza night...a hit with everyone in my family. Great with chicken or shrimp...whatever you have leftover. I think the balance of the savory pesto with the sweetness of tomato and caramelized onions turned out really nice. If you use a sweet onion such as vidalia, you can omit the sugar. I used recipe #144195 with great results. Hope you enjoy!!
