Notes

You will only use half of the pesto for this pizza. Use the rest to make an extra pizza, toss it with some pasta, or check out this How to Use Pesto article for 30 recipes ideas.
I used a 14-inch pizza pan for this recipe. If you're looking for a great pan, you need to try this USA Pan Pizza Pan! It's the BEST.
If your pizza dough contracts when spreading on the pan, let it rest for few minutes before continuing. Resting relaxes the gluten, making it easier to spread.
