Easy Sunday Night Spinach Pesto Pizza

This is a quick and filling twist on the traditional Margarita that's healthier and tastier than your average pizza.  You can either make your own pizza dough or, like I did, buy a $1 ball of whole wheat pizza dough at Trader Joe's. Serves 6

Ingredients
2 medium balls mozzarella sliced
1/2 cup marinara sauce, I prefer Rao's
1/4 cup rotisserie chicken (optional)
1/4 cup spinach pesto*
salt and pepper to taste
*1/2 cup spinach
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 half clove garlic, minced
combine these three  in a blender
add oil if needed

Preheat Oven to 400 degrees
Leave dough at room temperature for 20 minutes
Roll out onto an oiled baking sheet (or pizza stone if you have one)
Spread sauce
Top with mozzarella and pesto



Cook for 10-15 minutes

Allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing

This was all that was left for me to take a picture of! Very yum
