Philly: Chicken and Spinach Pita Pizzas

Having taken logic I can determine that a Long day equals quick meal. Therefore, pita pizzas equal delicious.

They are easy, quick, and very satisfying. Now if you are like me and have a hollow leg, you probably want to eat at least two. For the lighter person, try one pizza and a side salad.

I have posted a pita pizza recipe before, but that was my “Chicken Margarita” pizza, and this one is different enough to stand on its own.

My spinach and chicken pita pizza is a delicious and a way to impress your friends, or just yourself with something quick and easy.
