Pizza! Pizza! – 4 WW PTS

Hubby and I like to make pizza every once and a while. This flavor combo is one of our favorites. I am lactose intolerant, so this pizza only has goat cheese on it.
Trader Joe’s has some great pre-made pizza doughs. They have plain, garlic & herb, and whole wheat. We like to get the whole wheat dough, although hubby thinks it needs some more flavor…
Chicken Sausage, Spinach, Sun Dried Tomato, Goat Cheese Pizza (4 WW PTS)
8 servings – from ME!

2 chicken sausages – sliced – we used the Trader Joe’s Sun Dried Tomato chicken sausage3 cups spinach – chopped
1/2 pkg sun dried tomatoes (NOT in oil) – chopped
~3 oz goat cheese (crumbled)
small amount of milk – used Silk Light Vanilla soymilkPizza dough – used Trader Joe’s whole wheat pizza dough

Follow directions for pizza dough and cook the dough by itself. Poke holes in the dough if you don’t like the bubbles.

While dough is cooking, melt ~2 oz goat cheese and a small amount of milk until chese is melted.

When dough is done, remove from oven and pour melted cheese over pizza. Top with spinach, tomatoes, and sausage. Cook in oven for another few minutes to heat the meat.

Sprinkle remaining cheese on pizza and heat a few more minutes.

    This looks great! After apple picking last year, I was desperately searching for ways to use the apples in savory ways. Now one of my favorite recipes is a calzone filled with apples, proscuitto, brie and sage. SO good!

    My husband used to laugh at me when I told him that as kids we would do apple pie filling and cheese in the hobo pie maker. It was fabulous…I’m going to show him this post to prove that I’m not crazy. We’re apple picking this weekend, so I’ll be sure to try this out!

    I definitely need to think of some savory ways to use up all of the apples we pick every fall, and stop making sweets! This looks like a great recipe!

    What a great apple treat. I’ve got loads of apples this years from my trees and am looking for yummy recipes to use them up. After all, a girl can only eat so much apple sauce LOL.

    I didn’t realize this was going to be a sweet sandwich. It looks so yummy! I once had a grilled cheese sandwich with thinly sliced apples in the middle and it was delicious!

    This recipe looks really tasty! I tried a similar flavor combo, but it was apple, cheddar omelete. I needed as apple with more flavor- the one I used wasn’t tart enough!

    This looks like a great comfort food sandwich! I spent yesterday baking apple pies and snacking on cheese and crackers. I snuck in a few apple slices on my cheddar & crackers – yum!

    I love making grilled cheese with a really great goat’s milk gouda–it’s our new favorite grilled cheese–but I think I’d die and go to heaven if I made it this way! thanks for sharing.
