Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh basil in your pesto. If you don't have fresh basil, you can use dried basil, but the flavor will be less intense.
- If you don't have feta cheese, you can substitute another type of cheese, such as mozzarella or cheddar.
- If you don't have pita bread, you can use another type of bread, such as naan or flatbread.
- Be careful not to overcook the pizza. The crust should be golden brown and the cheese should be melted and bubbly.
- Serve the pizza immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include diced tomatoes, sliced red onion, and arugula.
