As Christmas draws near and Christmas shopping continues,
staying on a budget is a MUST!
This means not always getting to use the fanciest
ingredients but that doesn't mean it can't tasty fancy! ;)
Tonight I made one of my favorite pizzas for dinner...
This pizza is simple and straightforward.
Ingredients:
1- 100% whole wheat Boboli pizza crust
1 cup- Sweet Baby Ray's Sweet n' Spicy BBQ sauce
1 cups- shredded monterey jack or mozzarella cheese
1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
1- 8oz can of pineapple chunks drained
seasoning salt
garlic
pepper
paprika
red pepper flakes
2 TBS- olive oil
*add a POP of color with these yummy optional ingredients: avocado, red onion and cilantro!
Directions:
Coat your chicken breasts in olive oil and seasoning on both sides.
I like to season pretty heavily but you do what you feel is best for your family!
Place them onto a baking sheet lined with foil and throw them into the oven
at 375 degrees for 35 minutes. Once they are done, take them out and let them sit
for about 10 minutes. I like to use my Kitchenaid mixer to shred my chicken
but if you do not have a mixer you can shred them with two forks!
Once the chicken is shredded, you can put it to the side.
Lay your pizza crust on a pizza pan, brush on your BBQ sauce like
you would any other pizza sauce! Sprinkle your shredded chicken, pineapple and
shredded cheese onto your pizza evenly. If you are adding onions you should add them
now as well. If you are adding cilantro or avocado, you should wait to add them after the
pizza is finished cooking. ;)
Place in oven for 8-10 minutes at 450 degrees.
Your cheese should be bubbly and turning a nice golden brown!
**Feel free to drizzle a little more sauce on the top and sprinkle on your fresh toppings!!
(You could even drizzle some light ranch for a little extra flavor.)
TAH-DAH!!
It should feed about 4-6 people.
Oh... and to make myself feel a little better about the amount of cheese
I consumed tonight, I served a little spinach salad on the side!
