Made this recipe and used bacon with it and fresh red pepper. It tasted great and my teen loved it too. But one slice was plenty. The crust wasn't crisp enough to pick up so it didn't seem like pizza because we had to use fork. We liked the taste but probably wouldn't make again since it would really be a good appetizer cut into smaller squares but I just don't go places where I need that. Great use for squash and flavors go really great together took a bit longer to make than anticipated but that was ok

This is fantatic! My husband said "I feel like I am on the Food Network" My kids ate up the squash and wanted more. Just don't over add ingredients, the flavors are perfect in the recipe.

This is a one of a kind Pizza that is so much more than just a Pizza. Its a meal, a snack, or a late night warmer upper. Every time I took a bite I found a different flavor and wanted more. MMMMMMMMMore

Forgot to add the pesto but honestly, we thought it was a better pizza without it. I think the pesto flavor would have overpowered the delicious squash and pungent cheese.

I would definitely NOT make this recipe again.The flavors were much too intense for my tastes.

Karen allowed me to taste her butternut squash pesto pizza at work. It was (and is) delicious! I immediatley started to think how good it would be for dinner, as an appetizer or a snack. My wife has tought me the finer things in life and learning about food is one of them. The color , the great flavor and combination of ingredients were a winner from my first sample. We are always coming up with a function so Karen can make it for us! I'm craving it right now!

Who doesn't love pizza? But if you're getting tired of the same old pepperoni, try this recipe. It's a new kind of mouth party!
