Pesto Prosciutto Pizza

I made us dinner last night for the first time in over a month.   Per my husband; it was the best pizza he ever had!

Pesto Prosciutto Pizza:
1 Pre-made Pizza Crust (I used a rectangular Culinary Cuisine Brand pizza crust)
4 TBSP Basil & Pine Nut Pesto
4 Marinated Artichoke Hearts, quartered lengthwise
3 cloves of garlic, smashed and thinly sliced into pieces
2 long slices of prosciutto, cut into small slices
1/2 cup of Italian Blend Shredded Cheese
1 cup of Low-Fat Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1 small can of sliced Black olives
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Preheat oven to 425
Spread Basil Pesto over pre-made pizza crust
Combine cheeses, and spices in a separate bowl, toss, and set aside
Place artichoke hearts, garlic and prosciutto on pizza
Cover with 2/3 of cheese mixture
Spread Black Olives over pizza
Cover with remaining 1/3 of cheese mixture

Bake pizza @ 425 for about 8-10 minutes. (Until cheese starts to get brown and bubbly)
I cook mine on a pre-heated pizza stone for a nice crisp crust
