Quick Margherita Pizza on Naan Bread

I love summer! And I love cooking. But with our summers being so short, I find that I’m not as keen on making elaborate time-consuming dishes. Sure, I love my perfected pizza recipe. But I would rather be outside or at the beach then taking the time to let it rise, roll I t, etc. Plus, I really don’t want to have my oven on for too long in the summer (which is required to get the proper crust on a true pizza.)

So what’s the solution? This simple Naan pizza! I love eating a ton of salads in the summer with all of the freshest ingredients. But sometimes, I crave something more than just a salad – and this delicious filling pizza definitely satisfies that craving!

You will seriously only need about 15 minutes to make this pizza! So let’s get cooking!
