Ingredients
This pizza is a great option for brunch or a meat-free dinner, with its mix of bright summery pesto, smokey ham and bacon and the eggs baked right in, which leads to a lovely yolks sauce when you cut it. Nice chilled glasses of Bogle’s Sauvignon Blanc or Bogle Rose are ideal to drink with it, as both offer a refreshing light, crisp and fruity balance to the richness of the eggs and the pungent pesto. I love them both!
For the pesto:
2-3 cups packed fresh spinach
1/2 cup walnuts
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon saltKG
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup Parmesano Reggiano, grated
1/2 cup olive oil

1 package of your favorite store-bought pizza dough or homemade dough to make 1 15” pizza
