Caitie: We should bake something today!
Erin (smirking, sarcastic): uh, WE?
Caitie: Well, YOU should bake something, and I'll sit here and keep you company!
That was a recent conversation between the two of them.
If you read my blog regularly, you may have seen the brownies and cupcakes and creative cakes that Erin regularly bakes.
Caitie does her best to avoid the kitchen. Just imagine my surprise when I walked in the door one day last week and was greeted by this:

Caitie got busy baking blondies. They were still warm!
And then she requested that I make Chicken Pesto Pizza. She's hard to resist when she plies me with warm blondies.
I feel the need to warn you that this is going to be a long recipe. Three recipes, actually. I made the crust from scratch. I made the pesto from scratch. And THEN I made the pizza.
But before I made the crust, pesto and pizza, I roasted the garlic (for the pesto), roasted the chicken (for the pizza), sautéed some mushrooms (because NO pizza-o-mine is complete without 'shrooms). It turned into a two-hour ordeal. Two hours!!! For two pizzas. But it was soooooo good.
Make that sooooooooooooooo good.
To save time, make it easy on yourself. It's the pesto & chicken combo that's important, and nobody's going to judge you if you don't prepare all of your ingredients from scratch. Buy ready-made pizza dough. Buy ready-made pesto. Buy pre-cooked (or rotisserie) chicken.
