Chicken and Spinach Pizza

This is nothing new… but it was a first time dinner for us! Tonight we made a Chicken and Spinach pizza… it was yum!

Mr Wonderful is very excited that there are a few slices left over for his lunch tomorrow!

Here is the recipe I used if you want to try it:

Chicken & Spinach Pizza

Pizza Ingredients
• 1 package ready made pizza crust (I made my own pizza base)
• extra virgin olive oil
• 1/4 cup seasoned tomato sauce (I used tomato paste because we had some in the fridge)
• 1/3 package (10oz) frozen whole leaf spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
• 2 cooked chicken breasts, sliced
• 2-3 green onions, chopped
• 10 grape tomatoes, halved
• 2 oz. Romano cheese, thinly sliced
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, grated
• salt and pepper

Preheat oven with pizza stone to 210ºC/425ºF.
To build the pizza:
1. Drizzle 2-3 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil on crust, lightly coat all the crust evenly with fingers, then sprinkle with pepper.
2. Spread around tomato sauce, don’t feel like you have to coat the whole crust, just here and there.
3. Layer on spinach, chicken, tomatoes, onions. Sprinkle on salt and pepper, being sure to hit the spinach and tomatoes with salt.
4. Lay on slices of Romano on chicken, and spread Mozzarella all over.
5. Bake on pizza stone 7-9 minutes. Allow to cool a couple of minutes before serving.

Note: We just used normal cheese to save money, it tasted just fine.. but if you wanted to be fancy I’m sure the Romano and Mozzarella would be tasty!

Enjoy!
