BBQ Chicken Pizza

One night we ordered BBQ chicken pizza from Boston Pizza and I absolutely LOVED it and so did my hubby and kids. I thought it looked easy enough to try to duplicate, so I gave it a try. Now its an absolute favourite in our household.

A Palate Pleaser!

I made this recipe a while ago and found that everyone in my family really enjoyed it! It was an all around palate pleaser!
The only down side of this recipe is time. Making the sauce takes over an hour and then you still have to put it all together and cook it for another 35 minutes.  On the other hand, I've found that the sauce makes enough for 2 recipes.

It's quite delicious and filling. But this morning I was feeling like a little something different. The kids wanted toast with the new Philadelphia chocolate cream cheese. I felt like having some of the cream cheese but not all the carbs from the toast. So this is what I came up with;
