Food CHICKEN PIZZA - fooddeary.blogspot.com

I don't know about you but I love pizza.  Unfortunately, my blood sugar does not love pizza.  That is one thing that will shoot my blood sugar up every time!  However, there are ways to enjoy pizza.  Unfortunately this recipe does not work for me because I don't eat chicken.  Is is, however, a good recipe for diabetics and since most of you love chicken, I will share this recipe today. This is an old recipe I have had for many years. You can update to the newer low-carb or cauliflower crusts on the market today to lower the carb count, if you prefer.

1 (10 1/2-oz) whole-wheat pizza crust
2 tbsp light balsamic vinaigrette
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 pkg (8-oz) fresh sliced mushrooms
1 cup shredded cooked skinless chicken breast
3/4 cup shredded Asiago or Parmesan Cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Heat the vinaigrette in a large skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the onion and cook about 5 minutes to soften, stirring frequently.  Add the mushrooms and cook another 5 minutes to tenderize.

Spread the hot mixture evenly over the pizza crust; top with the chicken.  Sprinkle the cheese over all.

Bake at 400 degrees 15 to 20 minutes until the crust is crisp and the cheese is melted.

Yield: 6 servings
Per serving: 250 calories, 29 g carbs, 14 g protein.  This is a good carb/protein ratio for diabetics.
