A tube of Pillsbury Pizza Crust, some red, ripe campari tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, basil, garlic and balsamic vinegar, along with the chicken make an amazing quick and easy weekday or weekend dinner.

    • I even like anchovies. LOL! The ONLY thing I can’t eat is mushrooms. Wish I liked them, but just can’t. I don’t think I’d like liver on it either, but does anyone even eat that anymore?! UGH!
