What's something every family has nearly once a month?
Give up?
Pizza Night!
This night usually involves lots of gooey cheese, rich sauce, movies, soda pop, paper plates and arguing (depending on the size of the family) over what toppings get to adorn the luscious pie! Don't you just get a craving for all that? Well, maybe not the arguing... but the taste of the pizza... the tomatoey goodness of the sauce... tasty toppings mingling together on your tongue... melted cheese on your chin!
It's time to enjoy it once again with a zillion less calories and fat grams!
Pizza Chicken (1 serving)
1 5 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 tbsp pizza sauce (home made or jarred)
4 slices turkey pepperoni
1 mushroom, sliced thin
1 ring sliced bell pepper
2 tbsp mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 400F. Flatten the chicken breast to 1/2" thickness. Season chicken with salt, pepper and garlic powder and place on a foil lined baking sheet. Spread the sauce evenly over the seasoned chicken then layer with pepperoni, mushrooms and bell peppers. Bake chicken for 15 min then top with cheese and bake for an additional 5 min.
This is only the beginning! The possibilities are as endless as the local pizzeria menu options and of course your imagination. Not to mention it cooks up just as fast as one of those pizzas you bring home and cook yourself! Oh, by the way, did I mention these can be cooked on the grill?
This one serving, made just like this is only 5 points! It's a rather large "piece" of pizza and will definitely fill you up but why not have 2 "slices" and put that craving to rest for a little while!
