Mama Mia!

I have never been a fan of "make your own" pizzas.  As far as I'm concerned, leave it to the professionals.  Most likely, your creation will taste nothing like Papa's.  These were my thoughts...until last night.  I wearily stumbled upon a delicious summer creation that left me drooling for more.  And, {gasp} I don't think the professionals could master this homemade recipe.  Fresh and semi-healthy {ie: it's from Cooking Light}, this za was a welcome week night treat!  I substituted apples for peaches and added a little bit more chicken and cheese.  C'est bon!

Gorgonzola Chicken Pizza

Ingredients

1 (10-ounce) prebaked thin pizza crust (such as Boboli)
    *(I used the fresh Trader Joe's crust and baked it for 5 minutes before topping...worked like a charm!)

Cooking spray

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

3/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided

1 cup shredded cooked chicken breast

1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese

1 medium unpeeled peach, thinly sliced  *(I used an apple here and it was delicious)

1/3 cup balsamic vinegar

Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 400°.

2. Place pizza crust on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Brush 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil evenly over crust. Top evenly with half of the shredded mozzarella cheese, chicken, Gorgonzola cheese, and peach slices. Top with remaining mozzarella. Bake at 400° for 11 minutes or until crust browns.

3. Place vinegar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons (about 5 minutes). Drizzle balsamic reduction evenly over pizza. Cut pizza into 8 wedges.
