Pesto, cherry tomato and ricotta pizza

It was the end of summer and there were garden fresh tomatoes everywhere – a perfect opportunity to try to integrate some into a pizza. Since the tomatoes were so sweet I knew I wanted a savory base so I opted for pesto (basil and tomatoes go together forever) to round out the flavors I tried adding dollops of fresh ricotta after the pizza was fired. I wasn’t sure about this one but it turned out amazing – the salty pesto helped cut through the creamy ricotta and the sweet tomato pops brought it all together. The wife asked that I add this one to the regular rotation which I count as a win!
