INSTRUCTIONS
SUNDRIED TOMATOE PESTO
Preheat oven to 450F. Spread pesto over pizza crust within 1/2 inch from
edge. Drain artichokes and reserve marinade in bowl. Cut large artichoke
hears in half and arrange them evenly over pesto. Sprinkle mozzarella over
pizza. Rinse scallops and pat dry; toss well in reserved artichoke marinade
oil and drain. Put scallops on pizza and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Bake pizza until bottom of crust is crisp and cheese has melted. Scallops
cook fast, but should be opaque in center. Takes about 6 to 8 minutes.
(Bake on middle oven rack.)
Serves 4.
Sundried Tomatoe Pesto:
* use some from the tomatoes jar
Combine tomatoes, Parmesan, basil, pine nuts, and garlic in processor. With
machine running, gradually add oil until smooth paste forms. Add salt and
pepper to taste.
Substitutions: I used the dry Sun Dried Tomatoes and then rehydrate them. I
also lower the oil and use Fat Free parmesan cheese.
Shrimp is great on this, as well! Enjoy!
