Ingredients

1 cup well packed basil
1 cup loosely packed spinach
2 cloves garlic
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
3 tbsp cashews or other nuts such as walnuts
water as needed (optional)
1/4 tsp salt
1 recipe 20 minute pizza crust
1 large or 2 medium potatoes
1/2 red onion thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Steps

Heat the oven to 450 F.
Blend the basil, spinach, garlic, 2 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, cashews, salt, and enough water to make a spreadable pesto.
Slice the potatoes very thinly and toss them with the remaining oil, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Roll the pizza crust onto a baking sheet and spread the pesto over it.
Arrange the potato mixture over the crust and bake for 20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the crust is browned.
