Health and Fitness Tips

Health and Fitness Tips - Healthy Recipes - Star-Spangled Grilled Pizza:

This Italian favorite is easy to prepare, and is good for you. With artichoke earts to balance the loads of chicken, this meal is an exciting departure from your average barbecue fare.

Serves 4

2 pizza crusts, Boboli, personal size, about 8 to 10 inches
12 ounces (2 cups) grilled chicken breast; diced
6 ounces nonfat shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts; drained, chopped
1/2 cup prepared marinara or pizza sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper


Preheat grill to medium heat. Top each shell with 1/4 cup sauce. Divide the remaining ingredients equally between the two pizzas, finishing with the cheese. Place the pizzas on the upper rack, or away from direct flame on a double piece of greased aluminum foil. Cover grill and cook for about eight to 10 minutes until cheese is melted and hot. Check the bottom of crust half way through cooking to be sure it is not overcooking. (Aluminum foil under the pizza will help slow the crust browning if needed.)
