Pesto Pizza

 My son attends a school with a farm to table initiative.  Meaning a majority of the food served at his school comes from local farmers or the school garden.  Every week there is a pesto pizza day.  It is what actually caused us to switch from making him a lunch every day to choosing which days he wants lunch from home or school.  He loves the stuff.
 
As a result of Little Man's pesto pizza obsession, there are currently 8 basil plants in our backyard.  For anyone who has never grown basil before, that is a lot of basil.  Little Man has been staling them relentlessly for the moment when he would have enough to make pesto (3 cups).  Wednesday was that day!
