One of my favorite ways to use leftovers is to make a pizza out of whatever we have on hand. Obviously this works better for some leftovers vs. others :) A few nights ago we made chicken tacos and had extra chicken that I tossed in a bowl to use on a pizza. So the next night I made a pizza crust and added the chicken, some leftover red pepper and tomato, spinach, and ricotta cheese. It was pretty tasty!! Here are the ingredients I started with. The crust is pretty easy, you just follow the directions on the back of the yeast packet.
Once the crust was finished I drizzled some olive oil on it and started adding the toppings. You bake it for about 15 minutes and voila you have dinner!
One of Jason's favorite combinations for a pizza is BBQ chicken, black bean, and red onion. I like it also, so we have it quite a bit. On that one you use a thin layer of BBQ sauce for the base, toss the chicken in BBQ sauce, add toppings and bake. This is such a cheap and easy dinner!! And if you don't feel like making crust you can always buy the pre-made ones.
I couldn't resist taking this while the pizza was baking...
