Pizza with pea-spinach pesto and caramelized onions and fennel
Pesto
Italian cuisine
This is one of the pizzas I have developed after being really disappointed with many other vegan pizzas I have tried. I am not totally against cheese or dairy but I make a concerted effort to limit it in my diet. Having said that, I have never been impressed with faux non-dairy cheese. I made this pizza once before for my birthday dinner at my mom’s house. The pesto is such a beautiful color! The great thing about it is that the pesto and the caramelized onions and fennel can be applied to so many other recipes and food preparations. The pesto would be great as a sandwich spread (thank for the suggestion Duo Dishes!) or on pasta. The onions and fennel would also be great on a pasta dish or as a bruschetta topping. It was also a great way for me to get peas into my diet (which were not always a love of mine). <br /> <br />For this recipe, I used whole wheat naan bread but in the past I have used whole wheat pizza dough that I have purchased from a local pizza parlor and/or made myself.
