Georgia Peach Pizza
This summer pizza uses sweet peaches and fresh pesto for a flavor combination that everyone will love.
recipesbynani.comThere is nothing quite like the taste of fresh summer peaches. When you pair them with savory pesto and melted cheese, you get a unique pizza that is perfect for outdoor dining or a fun weekend lunch with friends and family.
My best tip is to use fresh basil pesto if you have it on hand. If you are using a store bought version, just make sure to look for one with a bright color and fresh ingredients. This recipe is always a hit at my summer gatherings.

This pizza is best enjoyed right away while the crust is crispy. If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for one day and reheat in the oven instead of the microwave to keep the crust from getting soggy.
