This is a hit of nostalgia for me; although as a kid I usually used tinned spaghetti sauce rather than pesto, and pitas rather than naan, the basic idea is the same -- skip the difficult and lengthy process of making and shaping the pizza dough, and just turn a pre-existing flatbread into a pizza. And since the Kidlet likes pizza a lot, it's good times all round.
The recipe here is per pizza; if you want more pizzas, just scale it up linearly, although you may need to cook them in multiple batches depending on the size of your baking sheet.
