Fresh basil elevates an easy vinaigrette recipe that dresses up this simple salad into something extraordinary.

Thawed frozen corn works in place of fresh, just pat it dry before sprinkling it on the pizza.

Make a double batch for lunches later in the week.

Ingredients like oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, briny Kalamata olives and toasty pine nuts help to build big flavor fast.

Serve it alongside grilled chicken, pork or fish or as part of a vegetarian spread.
