We love pizza, let’s face it who doesn’t, an american family staple. But The same old same old get’s so BORING! It’s nice to have a change so when my sister mentioned chicken fajita pizza I was intrigued and had to try it. I LOVE IT!
You can mix your own fajita seasoning (I include the spices in the recipe, OR you can simply use your favorite powdered fajita mixture. Instead of using pizza sauce your going to use your favorite salsa. I prefer a picante, but if you like the chunky stuff go for it. That’s one of the best things about pizza, you can totally personalize it!
Easy peasy! And oh so good! I know it sounds a little… strange, salsa on pizza, I was totally wary at first. BUT seriously I love it, it’s SO good. The kids weren’t won over (they are more picky about their pizza toppings, they prefer cheese and pepperoni – boring), but the ADULTS loved it, it was a huge hit.

- Sprinkle half the chicken, onion and pepper over each pizza dough
- Sprinkle half the salsa over each pizza
