J2's Blog of Food Things

While I do not claim to have created the recipes you will find here...I do lay claim to having prepared them all. As a society we have lost our way when it comes to healthy eating and preparing our own meals. We rely heavily on fast food chains and pre-made boxed meals as the means to feed ourselves. I urge you to take the time to do a little meal planning every week, and prepare simple and healthy meals for your family every day. It may take a little time...but you're worth it.

Chicken & Spinach Alfredo Pizza

1 Ball fresh or frozen pizza dough (thawed & room temperature)
2 tbsp butter, softened
1/2 c Parmesan cheese, shredded
3/4 c Alfredo pasta sauce
2 c rotisserie chicken, chopped
1 1/2 c packed fresh spinach leaves
1 c shredded Italian cheese blend or shredded mozzarella cheese

Heat oven to 400°F. Grease large nonstick cookie sheet with olive oil. Press out dough into cookie sheet evenly, and up the sides a bit.
Spread butter over dough; sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over butter. Bake 7 minutes; remove from oven.
Meanwhile, in medium bowl, mix Alfredo sauce and chicken; spoon evenly over partially baked crust. Top with spinach and cheese.
Bake 5 to 7 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown.
