Ingredients
1 tube refrigerated pizza dough - (10
Cornmeal, as needed
1 tsp crushed dried oregano
1/2 tsp crushed dried basil
8 oz cooked chicken breast, chopped
1/2 cup reduced-fat low-sodium jarred
marinara sauce
2 tbsp finely-chopped onion
2 fresh mushrooms to 3 - (optional), thinly sliced
1 tbsp freshly-grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella chees
Directions
Open the dough package and on a lightly floured surface, roll out to
roughly form a 10-inch circle. Place the crust on a cookie sheet which has
been lightly sprinkled with cornmeal. Using your fingers, pat dough to
desired shape and thickness.
Prepare the barbecue for medium heat. Transfer pizza to the prepared
grill. Grill for about 3 minutes, until the top of the dough puffs and the
underside is crisp and lightly browned. Using a large metal spatula, turn
the crust over. Brush the cooked top with olive oil and sprinkle with
oregano and basil.
In a medium bowl, combine the cooked chicken, marinara sauce, and onion.
Spread mixture over the top side of the crust. Arrange mushrooms on top
(if using). Top with Parmesan cheese and sprinkle on the mozzarella,
covering the top evenly.
Continue to grill for another 4 to 5 minutes, until the pizza is cooked
through, the dough lightly browned, and the cheese melted. To insure even
cooking, use tongs to rotate the pizza two or three times during the
cooking period, taking care not to knock off the topping.

Weight loss dietsThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system first created by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t particularly a fat reduction diet, although many followers claim that they lose a few pounds by following this system. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if one can gain control of the secretion of the hormones 'insulin' and 'glucogen', then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a result puts one's body in a balanced state which is much more healthy than usual, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears states that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its most efficient and, as a result, does not build up layers of fat. The most important technique of the zone diet is to keep tight control over the precise ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure you get increased amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6. The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition and weightloss system is based on the gi (or glycaemic index), a chart showing foods and a score representing the speed that the carbohydrates in the food gets transformed to sugar in the dieters bloodstream. The theory is that slow release food types (ie those food types with a low Gi score), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and mean that you can cut down on food without feeling hungry. It is also extremely useful for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI food types are beneficial in preventing increases in blood sugar amount. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet system created by Miami, florida-area cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses that dieters should eat "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston developed his system for his cardiac patients, based on his analysis of scientific studies on other weight loss studies. Examples of good foods include, lean beef, skinless poultry, shrimp, low or fat free cheeses, pecan halves, lowfat or nonfat milk and certain vegetables, such as asparagus, cabbage and snow peas. |
