Super easy and tasty

Great for a busy weeknight dinner.  The whole family loved it.  I had some left over chantarelle mushrooms from another recipe and I sauteed them in the bacon drippings and added them as well.  Delish.  Will definitely make again.

Quick and delicious

For the short amount of time needed to assemble, this tasted great and was a hit with everyone in the family.  I did add about a tablespoon of pesto as a base for each pizza rather than just brushing the pitas with olive oil.

I might skip the walnuts nest time. They didn't add much. Quick, easy. Tasty.
