BBQ Chicken Pizza

June 18, 2010 by
This pizza is only as good as the BBQ sauce you use, I actually just used a store bought variety since I had some on hand.  Just be sure that corn syrup isn’t the first ingredient at least.

Roasted Garlic Chicken Pizza

June 16, 2010 by
 
You MUST make this pizza. It’s a big favorite in our house.  We really love garlic around here, but roasted garlic especially. (Come to think of it, I like roasted just about anything).  Even if you’re not a huge garlic fan, you might be surprised how much you’ll love this.

pizza dough
roasted garlic, mashed
pizza alfredo sauce
shredded cheese, I use a mix of mozzarella and cheddar
chopped fresh rosemary
chicken, cooked and sliced
green onions, sliced
We sometimes put whole cloves of roasted garlic on as well

 
Spread the roasted garlic on the crust
 
Then the sauce
sprinkle on the cheese
 
then the rosemary
then the chicken
and lastly the green onions (or add after baking)
Bake on a pizza stone for about 8 to 12 minutes.

Pizza Sauce

June 15, 2010 by
 
It’s still PIZZA WEEK! This is my super easy pizza sauce, which also freezes well if you have some leftover.  If you like it spicy, throw in a little crushed red pepper.
 
PIZZA SAUCE
 
28 ounce can crushed tomatoes
2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp sugar
pinch each salt and pepper
4 cloves garlic, minced
 
Simmer in a pot, partially covered, for 20-30 minutes.
 (If you don’t have time to, it will still be good without time to simmer).
If you like your sauce smooth, just throw it in the blender.
 
VARIATION: Substitute tomato sauce for the crushed tomatoes.

Pesto Sauce

June 14, 2010 by
 
Pesto sauce has so many great uses, but on pizza instead of a red sauce is really fun. 
 
PESTO SAUCE
4 cloves garlic
2 cups basil leaves
1/4 cup walnuts, optional
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, optional
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
 
Mix garlic, basil, walnuts, and Parmesan in a food processor or blender.
While running, pour the oil in in a stream.
Process until smooth and beautiful.
 
TIP: Pesto sauce freezes especially well without any cheese.  But either way, you can pour the leftover pesto sauce into ice cube trays, let freeze, then empty into a zip lock bag and store if freezer and use as little or as much as you need later.
