Last week I ate this almost every day for lunch! Just make one pizza, refrigerate it and get out one slice or two a day to reheat. It has helped me to eat a balanced healthy lunch and it is easy to prepare. My family and I just got a puppy from the Angels of Assisi’s over the weekend. Our pup is a 10 week old beagle and she is as good as gold (even though her name is Ruby) but I still need all the energy I can muster to keep up with her and all the other joys of life. If you are crazy like me and adopt puppies when you are already pulled in a thousand different directions then I suggest you make some of these pizzas as well! But seriously, like with anything you love – the joy Ruby creates already far outweighs the extra work she creates. If we keep that in mind with all we do and with all of those that we love, I think we can stay both happy and energized. (But don’t forget to eat right!)
1/2 cup pesto basil sauce
