Cheesy Chicken and Artichoke Pizza

If you live where I live, then you are familiar with Fredrico's. I'm sorry, but I find it odd that a pizza joint has artichokes for toppings, and NOT jalapenos! Seriously! Or maybe it's just me, after all, artichoke is the favorite topping of one of my friends, and my brother in-law requested it for his bday dinner. Maybe I'm out of the loop...?

So I found this recipe on Food.com , and the only change I made was that I added spinach. (cuz those spinach/artichoke dips at restaurants are de-lish! So why not.) And I must say, I'm now in love with artichokes on pizza. Mmmmm!!!


Ingredients:
  • 1 (10 ounce) Pre-baked prepared pizza crust (or any 12 inch pizza crust)
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup chopped cooked chicken
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • frozen spinach (optional)


Directions:
  • Heat oven to 450.
  • Place pizza crust on cookie sheet. (I used my Pizza stone)
  • In a medium bowl, mix mayo, parmesan, artichokes, and garlic.
  • Spread over crust, leaving one inch border.
  • Top with 1 cup of the cheese, chicken, onions, and spinach.
  • Top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and pizza is thoroughly heated.

** The only thing I will do differently next time is get a different crust, or maybe make my own. I didn't like how this one didn't rise a whole lot and didn't make much of a rim around the edge.**
