Cheesy Marinara Shredded Chicken Pizza

Cheesy Marinara Shredded Chicken Pizza || HeathersDish.com When it comes to cooking dinner, I am really in the same boat as everyone else. Sure, we eat something new pretty much every night as a result of a blog post or freelance recipe in the works. But there are those nights that are wildly reserved for just cooking for the fun of cooking.   And cooking is SO FUN. Until you realize that you have no clue what sounds good anymore. And you have no creativity left because you let it leak out onto the internet earlier in the week. Then it’s just hard to even put a coherent recipe idea together, let alone acting on that recipe idea.   But you guys? I am really excited about this new product from Kraft that allows us all to take a mental break from cooking for our families, and lets fantastically layered flavors do the job for us. I’m talking about these really easy and really delicious Recipe Makers from Kraft – 9 new products, each with two complimentary sauces that would take the normal person hours to make! The great thing is that the boxes provide 3 different recipe options, but there’s really no limit to how you can use these sauces to put a yummy spin on any meal! Cheesy Marinara Shredded Chicken Pizza || HeathersDish.com I had one such night last week where I was literally staring at the refrigerator like it had just grown three heads. I knew I needed to cook and I just had no clue what to make. Thankfully I have all nine of these new flavor combos in my pantry, so I grabbed the Three Cheese Chicken Florentine and decided to make a pizza with it. You use the crock pot to rock out some seriously yummy shredded chicken. Store-bought pizza crust makes a great base (although you can definitely use homemade if you want!), and the creamy Three Cheese Baking Sauce makes the perfect bed to put all that tender chicken on top of. I threw on some fresh mushrooms for good measure and a layer of mozzarella cheese! Into the oven it went, and 12 minutes later we were eating!  So sure, I’m a food blogger. But I have off nights too…and when I do I can’t imagine anything better than a 12-minute dinner! Cheesy Marinara Shredded Chicken Pizza || HeathersDish.com


CHEESY MARINARA SHREDDED CHICKEN PIZZA

Makes 2 large pizzas

  • 1 box Kraft Recipe Makers 3-Cheese Chicken Florentine
  • 2 pizza crusts
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh veggies of choice – onions, peppers, mushrooms, olives, spinach, etc.

First things first you’ll want to make the shredded chicken. Pour the Garlic Tomato Simmer Sauce in the crock pot and nestle the chicken breasts into the sauce. Cook on low for 5-6 hours until cooked through and the chicken shreds easily. To make the pizzas, place a baking stone or a baking sheet in the oven and turn the oven on to 500. Spread half of the 3-Cheese Creamy Baking Sauce on the prepared pizza crusts, then layer half of the shredded chicken and desired veggies on top of the cheese sauce. Sprinkle evenly with half of the mozzarella. Place on the baking sheet/baking stone and bake at 500 for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden and crisp on the bottom. Repeat for the second pizza! Enjoy!  


What could you do with these sauces for a weeknight dinner? I’m always down for hearing new ideas! Here’s how Kraft does it:

Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! 

As we move into goal setting for the new year, may I suggest starting with your physical health? Not to fit the bikini body mold that society normalizes, but to actually BE as healthy as possible. When everything hit the fan for me this year I dug into two things that have been integral to creating positive growth and a healthier mindset: 

1️⃣ my relationship with God
2️⃣ my physical health

What that’s looked like for me on the health front: holding fast to my commitment to whole food nutrition, grace for the days when I choose otherwise, pushing myself to lift heavier in workouts, and taking up running again. 

What’s happened as a result? When I push myself physically, when I choose to practice discipline to do what I know is best for my body, it makes it infinitely easier to choose that same healthy discipline in every other area of life. You want to dominate your goals? Start with your health!
Remember when I blogged about food? 😂 Gosh the Remember when I blogged about  food? 😂 Gosh the past few months have been nuts. I’m still over here figuring out how to eat well without sacrificing my life in the kitchen, and this is a bowl I couldn’t NOT share with y’all. The best thing is that everything is almost always on hand in my fridge, it’s packed with nutrition, and tastes AMAZING!

In the bowl:
-rice mixed with Trader Joe’s Zhoug sauce
-broiled shredded Brussels sprouts
-chickpeas
-baby  arugula
-grilled chicken breast
-Romesco sauce (from Trader  Joe’s but I usually make my own)
-a little  tzaziki sauce

This meal has been on repeat all week, only changing the rice for riced cauliflower and omitting the chickpeas on low carb days. YUM! I find that if I have a variety of roasted veggies, grilled chicken, and a few different sauces on hand I can almost always come up with a great bowl for almost any meal!
It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday y’all! Almost 4 years ago I took a leap of faith and said yes to this job in an effort to create another stream of revenue. I had NO CLUE that it would change my life for the better in almost every way, that it would reignite my passion for health and community, that it would provide in so many beautiful ways. But it has, and I am so thankful to all of you who have trusted me and supported me along the way. 

When you shop with a small business you are literally a hero in their eyes, validating and supporting and protecting them. You guys are my heroes, and I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day: 3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day:

1️⃣ SMILE! Even if you don’t feel like it, smiling (even forcing it to the point of feeling weird) has actually been scientifically proven to improve mood, lower stress, and boost your immune system. I actually recommend doing it awkwardly around other people because it’ll make them smile too 😉

2️⃣ GRATITUDE! Right now, before you talk yourself out of it, say or write 3 things you’re thankful for. Big, small, or in between. In this moment I’m going to say sticky notes, my Le Creuset Dutch Oven, and the Hamilton soundtrack. BOOM!

3️⃣MOVE! Get up off your tush, right now, and move your body. Walk around your house, do some jumping jacks, lock yourself in the bathroom and do a little dance, whatever. This isn’t about looking cool, it’s about giving yourself a better day. 

Things are hard, ambiguity and uncertainty isn’t fun, but we can control ONE THING: ourselves. Praying that you choose to gift yourself a little bit of happiness today! 

Now, tell me below, what’s one thing you’re thankful for RIGHT NOW?
