Pizza, Pizza

Barbecue chicken pizza
I've tried a few new pizzas on my family lately. With both, I found a recipe and then completely altered it.





Barbecue Chicken Pizza

1- 12 in pizza dough crust (Trader Joe's makes great pizza dough in the deli section)
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
2 Cups of rotisserie chicken (shred it)
3/4 cups yellow or orange bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup vertically-sliced red onion
1/3 cup blue cheese or gorgonzola

Roll out pizza dough on a baking sheet or pizza stone. Spread barbecue sauce and follow with chicken, pepper and onion. Sprinkle cheese. Bake at 450 for 10-12 minutes.

Salmon Pizza

1-12 in pizza dough
6 oz can salmon (you might like smoked)
2/3 cup yellow bell pepper, chopped
2 cups green onions, sliced
3 oz. mascarpone cheese
freshly ground black pepper

Roll out pizza dough on a baking sheet or pizza stone. Spread green onions on pizza; follow with peppers. Then spread salmon pieces evenly. And drop dollops of mascarpone on top evenly. Grind black pepper on top and then bake at 450 for 10-11 minutes.
