VEGGIE GARDEN PESTO PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven and pizza stone at 500°F. Roll out the pizza dough to a 12" round (if you made my homemade crust, this will be half of the dough). Once the oven is preheated, place the rolled-out crust in the oven and bake for 3-4 minutes and remove it from the oven. This step is optional, but I find that it creates a crispier crust and prevents a soggy bottom from the heavy ingredients.
• Spread on a layer of pesto then add the cheese, tomato slices, and corn. Bake for an additional 11-13 minutes until the cheese is melted and the crust is brown around the edges.
• Remove the pizza from the oven and place the arugula on top. Enjoy immediately!
