Homemade Pizza...Kinda

With so many other things going on lately, I'm finding that I don't have as much time to make things from scratch (like I used to.)  No worries though, you can still make great food from store bought items in record time! 

To begin this post, I want to share 3 items that I ALWAYS, ALWAYS have in my refrigerator.  Pesto, Brushetta, and Mango Salsa.  I get all 3 of these items at Sam's Club.  They are located in the area around the meat and cheese usually.  If you keep these on hand, there are endless possibilities of last minute meals you can throw together, that taste wonderful! 

Chicken Pesto Pizza

What you will need (this makes 2 Pizzas):
2 - Pillsbury thin pizza crusts (in the canned biscuit section)
Prepared Pesto
Prepared Brushetta
Frozen (or any other pre-cooked) grilled chicken strips
Shredded Italian Blend Cheese (or just Mozzarella will work fine, this is just what I had.)
Crumbled Goat cheese

Prepare crust according to package directions.  Spread Pesto over each crust. Chop chicken strips into small pieces and sprinkle over crusts.  Add Italian cheese, then crumbled goat cheese.  Drain juice from brushetta and layer tomato mixture over other toppings.  Cook ~ 6-7 minutes.  So yummy and a fast dinner!
