Peanut Butter BBQ Chicken Pizza

Peanut Butter
PIZZA
and BBQ?

They totally go together. Now you can have your pizza and feel great about it! Single serve, thin crust and tastes sinful. 


  • 1 large whole grain tortilla (or use gluten free)
  • 2 tsp natural creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp light BBQ sauce
  • 2 oz cooked chicken breast, chopped
  • 1 cup veggies of choice eg: shredded carrots, mushrooms, peppers, onion, etc
  • 1 oz (1/4 cup) 2% shredded pizza blend cheese
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • sea salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.

Place the tortilla on the baking sheet. Mix the peanut butter and BBQ sauce until smooth. Spread over the tortilla.

Top with veggies, chicken and then the cheese. Garnish with parsley and spices.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the tortilla is crispy golden and the cheese is melted.

Remove from oven. Cut and eat (permission to eat the entire pizza).

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Frozen Fro-yo

Certain people are just meant for one another- like some couples and best friends. You know, that 'click' sort of feeling. I feel the same way about food. While I have some pretty wild food combo creations (I think everyone does, some are just closet creators...) there are oldie nibbles I grew up eating that I will take to my grave. Peanut butter and banana- match in heaven! Add chocolate and it's a killer of a trio. And to really take it over the top- make it into a frozen yogurt!




Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Fro-yo
  • 3/4 c. (175g) plain greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp natural peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp special dark cocoa powder (eg:Hersheys)
  • 2 packs stevia
  • 1/2 medium ripe banana

Throw all of the ingredients in the blender, mixing until smooth.

Pour into a metal bowl and freeze until solid, about 2 to 3 hours depending if you prefer 'soft serve' or old fashioned style ice cream.

Serve with more sliced banana if you wish.
Serves 1.
