Chicken Pesto Pizza

I love Pesto.....and I love pizza.  I remember when I was in sixth grade and Domino's came out with a Pesto pizza, I thought it was the greatest thing ever.  I have since tried to create the best version I could.  This one is pretty great.

Ingredients:

1.5 cups of shredded chicken (rotisserie, or boiling and shredding 2 chicken breasts works too)
Pesto (I used pre-made from Trader Joes)
1 Beefsteak tomato, sliced into thin pieces
1 large ball of fresh mozzarella, cut into thin slices
1/2 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella
1 bag of garlic herb pizza dough from Trader Joes

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Flour counter top.  Take dough out of bag and let sit for about 20 minutes.

Prepare chicken.  In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp pesto with chicken to coat. Set aside.

Sprinkle the bottom of a pizza pan with cornstarch.  Stretch dough out to sides.  Spread a thin layer of pesto over top. 

Layer thin slices of tomato over pesto.

Add fresh mozzarella slices. 

Add chicken, and cover rest of pizza with shredded mozzarella.

Bake for 20-25 minutes.

I could eat you all day every day.

Greek Salad

My apologies that it has been so long since my last post.  This past month has been crazy with weddings, parties, hurricanes, you name it.  Therefor, I haven't made as many new recipes as I would have liked, and have opted for Sushi a majority of nights.  This Greek salad is a classic easy recipe, and I only have added ingredients that I like (tomatoes? no thanks). Enjoy.

Ingredients:

Iceberg lettuce
1/2 red onion, chopped into 1 inch pieces
feta cheese
chopped Kalamata olives (yup, I depitted them, then chopped them)
croutons
Trader Joe's Feta Greek Dressing
Oregano

Directions:

Combine all ingredients above.  Top with extra feta.
