Mediterranean Pizza Skillet ~ Getting Healthy

SO I am trying a new recipe for pizza without all the fat or at least not as much as a regular pizza! Below is the information on this meal and where I found it at. We tried this last night and everyone loved it! Of course mine didn't look as pretty as this picture but it tasted wonderful!

Mediterranean Pizza Skillet

  • cook time: 10 mins

  • servings: 4

The flavors of the Mediterranean come to life in this crustless pizza skillet meal. Cubed chicken, artichokes, tomatoes, and olive oil are all cooked in one skillet and then topped with cilantro and feta cheese before serving. The French bread that is served alongside of the meal acts as the pizza crust.
