Mix It Up: For a more classic pizza, swap out the pesto and goat cheese for pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese – it’ll be just as tasty. Or, since this recipe makes two pies, you can make one of each!
Ingredients
2 12-inch whole-grain pizza crusts (or grain-free crusts)
3 tbsp Macadamia-Basil Pesto
1 recipe Paprika Garlic Chicken
1 grilled bell pepper (Mixed Grilled Vegetables), cut into thin strips
1 grilled red onion (Mixed Grilled Vegetables), roughly chopped
4 cloves grilled garlic (Mixed Grilled Vegetables), minced
1½ oz soft goat cheese
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
¼ tsp ground black pepper
Preparation
1. Preheat oven according to crust package directions. Over each crust, spread half of pesto, leaving a 1½-inch border. Divide chicken, bell pepper, onion and garlic between crusts, spreading over pesto. Sprinkle half of goat cheese over each. Drizzle each with oil and season with pepper.
2. Bake as crust package directs, until toppings are heated through and crusts are baked.
