Chick Pizza, according to John

AKA: Whole Wheat Pesto Chicken Artichoke Heart Pizza (yes, I made that name up myself)


This pizza was delicious, and I like to think of it as semi-healthy, with the whole wheat dough, artichoke hearts, pesto sauce and all. Seriously, go make this, now! Yum.

I used this whole wheat dough recipe I found off of allrecipes.com. I substituted garlic salt for regular salt, just to give it a little more flavor. It made a really nice thick crust. Or you could have made two thinner crust pizzas, according to the recipe anyway.

On to the pizza toppings:
Pesto sauce
Chicken
Bacon or sausage (I used sausage)
Artichoke hearts cut/diced
Mozzarella cheese
Grated Parmesan cheese
A sprinkle of feta to top it off


Assembling:
Spread pesto sauce on dough, in lieu of pizza sauce
Shred cooked chicken and coat with pesto sauce, spread out on dough
Next, layer with artichoke hearts
Followed by sausage
Cover with Mozzarella cheese
Add a little Parmesan
Top off with some feta (I only used this because I had it on hand, and needed to get rid of it, but boy was I glad I added some...I bet goat cheese would be good, too, if you're a goat cheese kind of person)

Bake at 425 degrees for about 18-20 minutes.
