YES!
And it's delicious too!
Although I am a self-proclaimed carb-o-holic, I won't eat a meal unless I've got a gargantuan amount of greens to go with it, and protein, I'm all about the protein. I've been obsessed with my Quinoa Crust but I needed a way to incorporate my greens and protein into my pizz, so Grilled Chicken Salad Pizza was created!
The title is long, but it was too hard to omit any bit of this tasty gluten free and dairy free goodness! This recipe is flexible, and can be made with whatever green base you prefer and topped with all your favorite salad fixings, I just chose what I got fresh this week at the Farmer's Market.
1 Grilled Balsamic Chicken Breast (*see below for instructions*)
1 Quinoa Pizza Crust
Base Greens of Your Choice (Fresh Spinach, Kale, Spring Mix, Etc.)
Sliced Tomatoes
Balsamic Vinegar (ensure that your brand is gluten free)
Olive Oil to Drizzle
Spices of your choice: Basil (fresh/dried), Oregano, Crush Red Pepper
1. Make quinoa crust pizza, or defrost pre-prepped and frozen quinoa crust
2. Top pizza crust with bed of greens
3. Drizzle Balsamic Vinegar, Olive Oil, and any spices across bed of greens
(This prevents your crust from becoming soggy!)
4. Add additional greens, tomato slices, and any other salad toppings
5. Slice cooked and partially cooled grilled chicken, add on top
6. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella/Go Veggie Rice Mozzarella Shreds
7. Add additonal dressing if desired
8. Enjoy!

- Additional Salad Ideas to top your pizza with:
