Ingredients
  

Pizza

  • 1 pizza crust I use the regular boboli crust brand. Gluten free crust can be substituted.
  • 1/4 cup favorite BBQ sauce Use more sauce if you like it saucy.
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese Use extra cheese if you like it cheesier.
  • 1 cup shredded cooked chicken Use a store bought roasted chicken to make this meal even quicker.
  • 1/2 cup canned or fresh pineapple chunks
  • Red onion (sliced thin) Optional
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano

Greens and Ranch BBQ Sauce (you can find the original recipe here)

  • 3-4 cups organic spring greens You can swap these out for your favorite greens, but I find these to be the perfect texture.
  • 1/2 cup mayo Greek yogurt can be used in place of the mayo.
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp dried dill weed
  • 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp white wine vinegar Any kind of white vinegar will work
  • 2 tbsp regular almond milk
  • 1/2 tbsp dried parsley I used fresh parsley I had on hand.
  • 1/2 tbsp dried chives I used fresh chives I had on hand.
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp black cracked pepper
  • 4 tbsp BBQ sauce We love Stubs and Sweet Baby Rays

Instructions
 

Preheat oven to 450 degrees

  • Start by adding as much or as little BBQ sauce to your pizza crust.
    •Sprinkle evenly with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
    •Add shredded chicken (drizzle a little extra BBQ sauce over chicken)
    •Add sliced red onion
    •Add pineapple chunks
    •Season with oregano
    •Sprinkle on the rest of the mozzarella cheese
  • Transfer onto a round pizza pan I love this one Bake for 10-12 minutes or until desired crispiness.
  • Meanwhile, add all the sauce ingredients to a small bowl and mix well. You may need to thin it out with additional almond milk if it's too thick.
  • When pizza is cooked, transfer to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes. Top with greens and drizzle as much of that delicious creamy dressing as you like. The more the better! Yum!

Notes

This recipe makes 1 pizza. I usually buy the Boboli two pack and make two pizzas so we have leftovers the next day.
Also, you can add the greens and dressing to individual pizza slices if you are worried about having leftovers. The greens do not hold up well the second day if assembled on the whole pizza.
Additional pizza toppings: 
•Fresh mushrooms
•Black olives
•Artichoke hearts, halved
•Fresh Parmesan cheese
•Red pepper flakes
