Chicken Pesto Pizza tastes like you’re sitting in the middle of Rome on a sunny afternoon. If you love pesto, you will love this pizza!
Pizza night is one of our very favorites. And it’s so easy! We always make our pizzas semi-homemade for a quick and easy meal. This Chicken Pesto Pizza is full of flavor and tastes like something you order at a restaurant. It’s so good
So easy and so good! My whole family loved this. Even my four year old and two year old. It’s a keeper!
