I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a way to use up some leftover peashoots. I had never used peashoots before, but I was intrigued by their bright green color and peppery flavor. I decided to make a pesto with them, and it turned out to be delicious. I then spread the pesto on a cauliflower crust and topped it with my favorite vegetables. The pizza was a hit with my family and friends, and I've been making it ever since.
