This tasty pizza passes on the traditional tomato sauce and uses a garlic hummus spread instead. If you really love garlic, feel free to add more to the hummus!
- 1 (15 oz.) can chick peas, drained
- 1 tsp. lemon juice
- 1 T. crushed garlic
- 1 large ready-made pizza crusts (such as Boboli)
- cooking spray
- 1/2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
- 1 c. frozen spinach, thawed and thoroughly drained
- 3/4 c. sharp cheddar cheese, grated
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
Place the first three ingredients in a food processor. Process until smooth. Spread evenly over the ready-made pizza crust.
Spray a medium skillet with cooking spray and cook the chicken pieces over medium heat until it's no longer pink. Season with crushed red pepper. Sprinkle the cooked chicken evenly over the pizza crust. Add the spinach and grated cheese.
Bake for about 10 minutes or until the cheese melts and the spinach is cooked through. Serve immediately.
