Pizza Procrastination

In an attempt to take my procrastination skills to an entirely new and culinary level, I'm working on pizza ideas for tomorrow.  I've been browsing various recipes and contemplating my ingredients for a few days, and since tomorrow is my day to cook, it's even productive! (I wonder if my professor would excuse the lack of paper if I give him something I cook?)

Finished product: pesto/black bean/tomato sauce topped with
spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms, and caramelized onions. 

My ingredients:
-some fresh basil growing
-some chopped hazelnuts
-lemon juice
-partial bag of frozen spinach
-bag of frozen corn
-can of black beans
-two large tomatoes
-some shredded parmesan
-small hunk of white cheddar
-olive oil
-garlic
-various spices/herbs
-onion
-stuff to make pizza  dough

So.  Today I made as much pesto as i could (not much), decimating my poor basil plant.  I put some olive oil, hazelnuts, tiny bit of parm, dash of dried thyme, dash of lemon juice, and about a clove of garlic.  I only had about a cup of basil so again, small amount.

I plan to use this dough recipe, or some variation thereof.

So my idea, cobbled together from recipes like this and this one, and the black bean pesto dip, is to blend up the tomatoes and pesto and black beans (and possibly some herbs and such) and spread it on the pizza, then top with cheese, caramelized onions, spinach, and corn.  We'll see how it turns out..maybe i post a picture tomorrow.

In other news, I ran up and down the basketball court about eighty thousand times this morning for class.  I hadn't realized how much I missed basketball.

Paper: 2 paragraphs/6-8 pages (due tomorrow)
Procrastination: homemade pesto, pizza plan

I think procrastination is winning.
