So after 4 or so days of trying to do a vegan diet both me and my friend Kesha that was also doing it got sick. So that pretty much put a damper on that. If anything it made me enjoy my meats and dairy even more! I never really ate too much meat anyways, just mainly chicken. Just dairy I think I need to cut back on. My digestive system felt better limiting dairy and adding in more fiber which I knew I was lacking, and I knew I consumed too much dairy. So back to a healthy diet normal style.

Tonight I made a delicious homemade Bbq Chicken pizza. It was so good and I know that is healthier than restaurant pizzas.

Ingredients:

-Trader Joes whole wheat pizza dough

-Trader Joes all natural bbq sauce

-rotisserie chicken seasoning

-lite mozzerella cheese

-red onions chopped

-chicken breasts

-melted smart balance non-hydrogenated butter or or an egg yolk scrambled

-garlic powder

I started off putting my frozen chicken breasts onto my crock pot sprinkled with some rotisserie chicken seasoning on top. Put it on high and let cook for about 5 hours. So I normally start around 12pm. Closer to dinner time take the pizza dough out of the fridge and get a pastry mat or cutting board lightly floured. Take the pizza dough out and place on the mat and let it rest for 20 minutes. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees While it is resting start chopping up the onions into desired shaped. Take the cooked chicken out of the crock pot and onto a plate. It should just fall apart easily. Start pulling it apart into the size of chicken you want.

Once the dough is done resting take your pizza pan and place it on there and start spreading it out with your fingers, pulling it to the desired thickness. Now its time for the bbq sauce. Spread the sauce in the middle, sprinkle with mozzerella cheese, add the chopped red onions, then top with the chicken. Put it into the oven for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes pull it out and with the melted butter or scrambled egg yolk brush the crust. The butter will give a little more flavor and the egg yolk will give it a little shine. After that sprinkle the crust with some garlic powder. The butter/egg yolk also allows the garlic powder to stick. Put it back into the oven for 5 more minutes. Once it is done pull it out and drizzle some more bbq sauce all over. It is done, Enjoy!!

I also made a yummy salad. I just combined half the bag of 50/50 spring mix salad bag with some chopped apples, some walnuts, feta cheese and then 2 tablespoons of Trader Joes Champagne Pear Vinagrette Dressing.
