Last night my wife totally surprised me with a Chicken Veggie Pizza. Now don’t get me wrong, before I got into health and fitness, Pizza was an all-time MUST! We had the greasy nasty pizza every Friday night along with beer & wings. But then since I started losing weight and getting fit, I’ve been trying to figure out how to enjoy variations of pizza!
Thanks to the Chicken Veggie Pizza, now we can feel great, lose weight, and eat clean!

Chicken Veggie Pizza Recipe
The prep time for today’s Chicken Veggie Pizza recipe is only 30 minutes (unless you want to take it a step further and marinate the chicken, which would be around 8 hours for marinating).
Necessary Ingredients

- 1 Cup Skim Milk

What I like the most about the chicken veggie pizza, besides the cleaner eating, is that you don’t have to wait until the dough to rise. Plus, you aren’t using flours and additives. It’s the closest you can get to a tasty and yet healthy dough and pizza.
