Greek Pizza





Greek Pizza

12 ounces pizza dough
1 cup pizza sauce
1 12 cups mozzarella cheese
2 cups cooked chicken, cubed
1 large red onion, sliced thin
12 cup feta cheese, crumbled
14 cup tomatoes, seeded, diced
14 cup kalamata olive, crushed
1 tablespoon oregano, fresh
 
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease 12 inch x 12 inch non-stick pizza pan with vegetable shortening.
Spread pizza dough onto pizza pan.
Spread pizza sauce over dough.
Top with remaining ingredients.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until bottom of crust is golden brown.

Greek Feta Dip

Greek Feta Dip

Greek Feta Dip

cup feta cheese, crumbled
14 cup kalamata olive, pitted and diced (add more if you love them)
14 cup garlic-infused extra-virgin olive oil (the type for dipping)
2 slices pita bread
 
Combine the feta cheese and the olives.
Drizzle the garlic infused oil over the mix, until it looks juicy and perfect for dipping your bread into.
Spray a skillet with olive oil baking spray, or pour enough olive oil in the skillet to just coat the bottom. Heat over medium-high heat. Warm your pita bread in the skillet. Remove, and cut into quarters. Repeat with the other piece of pita bread. (When desperate, I've seen this eaten with yeast rolls. lol).
Serve the bread warm from the skillet with the feta cheese mix. The feta cheese/olive mix should be at room temperature or just slightly warmer. You don't want the olive oil congealed, so if made ahead of time, zap it at 50% in the microwave to knock the chill off of it. It's almost like Greek crostini!
