pizza!!!

i found a recipe for tomato-chicken pizza in fitness magazine and just HAD to make it. i love margherita pizza and this was kind of like a margherita with chicken. i added mushrooms to the recipe and made it. it was delicious but then it got my mind working. the next try was a margherita pizza (complete w/ fresh, not shredded mozzarella) which was also spectacular but the most recent one was the best by far. dinner last night (and cold as lunch today) was a chicken-artichoke-mushroom sauceless pizza (sliced roma tomatoes instead of sauce). start with your choice of pizza crust (i have been using boboli wheat crusts), thinly slice some fresh garlic (about 2 cloves) and sprinkle it on the crust, lay tomato slices on top of the garlic, sprinkle chicken (i used the pre-sliced already cooked "shortcuts" chicken), artichoke hearts (get the packed in water ones but you may want to dry them pretty well after draining them before you put them on the pizza) and sliced mushrooms all over the pizza. mozarella on top - your choice. i use thin slices of the ball mozzarella (although i had to supplement it w/ shredded last time). cook according to package directions and enjoy... i didn't think to take the photo of the whole pizza last night, so this is the remaining piece of the chicken-artichoke-mushroom pizza
