This week there was a potluck going on where I am temporarily working. So my girlfriend (who works there full time) and I decided to make fruit pizza. This is an awesome dessert for potlucks, it’s super tasty and can look pretty impressive! (If I do say so myself!) It’s a great one to make during summer, early fall when fruit is in season. So before you make it, check out your local farmers’ market! Here is a picture of the one we made!
