Preheat grill* for direct heat grilling.
Brush tops of naan breads with 1 Tbs. olive oil. Place, oiled side down, on grill. Grill until hot and just beginning to blacken, 1-2 minutes. Meanwhile, brush remaining olive oil on pizza crust that is facing up (this will be the bottom of your pizza once you turn it).
Turn pizza crust so top of pizza is now facing up. Top with pesto, asiago, artichoke hearts, grape tomatoes, sundried tomatoes and bacon. Grill until cheese is melted and pizza is heated through, 3-4 minutes.
Prefer to bake Pesto Pizza in your oven?
- Just preheat oven to 425F.
- No need to brush the crust with olive oil.
- Just top with the pesto and the toppings and bake on a baking sheet until the cheese is melted and the pizza is heated through, about 8 minutes.
