Easy Recipe: BBQ Chicken Pizza

It's been awhile since I blogged abut pizza.  I really like pizza.  Brent LOVES pizza.  Trent has had a few bites of it and seems to be following in his daddy's footsteps.  So I decided I should make it myself to be able to control the ingredients.  One of my favorite kinds is bar-b-que chicken.  Yumm-o!  And this recipe is SUPER easy - the only way I roll.  My only complains is that H-E-B doesn't have whole wheat crust, so I'll have to look around for that next.

Ingredients:
Pizza crust
2 cups cooked chicken cubes (I bought pre-cooked in the freezer section - super easy)
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
1 1/2 cups grated Colby Jack cheese (I use low-fat)
red onions, bell peppers - chopped (Let's be honest - this isn't happening at the Gurley house!)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Mix together chicken and BBQ sauce
Roll out pizza crust
Layer 1/2 the cheese, the chicken mixture, then cheese (and veggies, if using)
Bake for 15 - 20 minutes
Enjoy!

Next time I might put some pineapple on it and see if I can sneak in some fruit for our picky baby boy!

Mow Grass

Trent wakes up saying 'Mow grass.'  ALL he wants to do is mow.  It's only March and I have MANY pictures of mowing.  It's going to be a LONG summer.  We're already coming up with activities to do to not be at home. {grin}  This times Miles got in on the action at Babs and Pops' house.

Hurry up, Pops!  We want to mow!

Taking turns with Pops

Tantrum time!  Trent's was WAY worse than Miles'!

What is she thinking?  Trying to induce labor maybe?  Ha!

I'll try not to make this blog all about mowing (and being outside) for the entire summer...but I am making no promises!

Any suggestions for activities to keep Trent occupied this spring/summer?  We're thinking swim lessons, lots of trips to the park, our neighborhood pool...what else???
