Pizza Chicken

Pizza Chicken is packed with pizza flavor but much healthier and full of veggies

If you are also feeling a little tired and not in the mood to cook a good dinner for your family {or just you}, then here's a good one for you:

Pizza Chicken

Packed with pizza flavor but a lot healthier than most pizza you'd get from a pizza place.

Since I was trying to make this healthy and full of veggies without too many carbs, I served it with a side of sautéed kale, but a side of some brown rice, garlic bread, or whole grain pasta would go well with this dish.

Also, this recipe can easily be cut in half and is great as leftovers, so you can make this to serve one {with leftovers} or for two.

It can also be doubled to serve more.
