BBQ Chicken Pizzadilla

This Pizzadilla was inspired by the California Pizza Kitchen’s BBQ Chicken Pizza.  I love to eat at the California Pizza Kitchen.  Their pizza is delicious, and I love the spinach and artichoke dip (LOVE IT).  The only thing I don’t like about CPK is that they only serve Pepsi products.  I am a Coca-Cola girl; I only drink Diet Coke.  SO, I am forced to drink water at CPK.

Back to the pizzadilla. It has all the flavors of the BBQ Chicken pizza, and it only takes a few minutes to make.  I sauteed the onions so they weren’t so overwhelming, but if you like raw onions you can skip that step.  I used some Boars Head Chipotle Gouda cheese that I found at Publix. It wasn’t spicy, it just gave the pizzadilla a little extra flavor (regular gouda or mozzarella will work too).  These pizzadillas are wonderful!  We both devoured them.  This will definitely be going in the regular rotation (along with a Diet Coke).

  1. Not drinking any kind of soda is so good for you, even if it's a diet drink. I mostly drink water now everywhere I go, except when I am having coffee, glass of wine or beer.
    I have tea at home, no sugar.

  2. I am so glad to hear that there is someone else out there who gets a pain in their heart when places on serve Pepsi products!!! Diet Pepsi is definately the devil! 😉
