Ingredients
 

  • 1 thin precooked pizza shell
  • 1 (5.5 oz) pkg Boursin Garlic and Herb Gournay Cheese
  • 1 Tbsp half and half
  • 12 oz mixed cherry and grape tomatoes halved
  • ¼ cup fresh basil leaves sliced chiffonade
  • ¼ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • sea salt for sprinkling
  • fresh cracked pepper
  • good quality extra virgin olive oil for drizzling (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 425°F with a pizza stone in the oven. Heat an additional 10 minutes to make sure the stone is well heated.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the Boursin and half-and-half.
  • Remove the pizza stone from the oven and place on the stove-top. Lay on the pizza crust. Spread the Boursin sauce over the crust (*see Notes), then layer the tomatoes and basil. Sprinkle with parmesan, sea salt, and pepper.
  • Put the pizza stone and pizza back in the oven and bake 10 minutes until crust is toasty. Remove from the oven.
  • To serve, drizzle pizza with olive oil (if desired) and slice into 8 sections.

Notes

Depending on the size of your pizza crust, you may not need all the Boursin pizza sauce. I usually use a little more than half on mine. Just spread on a nice thin later and don't pour it all on.
