Eating clean can be hard. I know this because I love food. Most times, I literally have to step away from the situation so that I don't overindulge. But food is meant to be enjoyed which means chicken and salad cannot and shouldn't be the only way to keep on your diet. Whilst I wouldn't recommend this recipe for someone who is looking to get lean in a short amount of time, it is a much healthier version to your store-bought or fast food option. If you'd like to try the recipe, keep scrolling :)!
INGREDIENTS
CRUST:
1/2 cup dry oats
2 eggs
1/4 tsp minced garlic
Thyme and ground black pepper to season
TOPPINGS:
1/2 cup RaguTomato Sauce (Tomato, Garlic & Onion)
1/2 cup chopped onions
3/4 cup chopped sweet peppers
1 cup chopped spinach
1 chicken breast, chopped
4 slices Great Value 2% Reduced Fat American Cheese
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven at 350°F. In a baking pan, mix all crust ingredients so that it covers the bottom of the pan. Place it in the oven for 15-20 mins or until its firm.
Chop veggies as much as you like. You can also swapped out or add other veggies that you love. You can also try other lean protein such as ground turkey or even tuna!
Once the crust is firm, remove from the oven. Spread Ragu sauce over the crust then layer with cheese slices. Once that's out of the way, then you can add your other veggie and meat toppings.
Next, pop it in the oven for another 15-20 minutes are until the crust is at a consistency you like (I like mine not too crispy). As soon as the time is up, it's time to dig in!
I will definitely be making this. Not only was it delish but it kept me for three hours until my next meal time. Not to mention, my husband love it too! Then again, he's not the picky type.
Tell me if you also tried this recipe or added any special ingredients!
