Roasted Vegetable Pizza with Lemon Ricotta Sauce

Sorry for the long hiatus, but the past two months have been about just getting by one day at a time. The good news is I am finally done with boards and have started clinical rotations which means I actually have a little free time on the weekends to get back in the kitchen!  To start, I have a fresh take on a house staple using seasonal ingredients for a delicious summertime dish.

Spicy Cilantro Pesto Pizza

It's rare for me to get bored with foods, but for me pizza is one of those things that gets old fast. I also tend to be a minimalist when it comes to pizza, my favorite being a traditional neopolitan-style pie on a thin crust fired in a brick oven. A few months ago I stumbled upon a frozen pizza that used a cilantro pesto in place of traditional red sauce, and it was absolutely delicious! Of course that means my grocery store promptly stopped carrying it. In protest of losing access to a favorite go-to quick dinner option from the freezer section, I decided to rewrite the book on frozen pizza.
