#ad Enjoy Healthy Eating With This Quick and Easy Chicken and Veggie Pizza #cbias








I've always been a big believer in the fact that healthy eating is a part of a smart plan for living well.

Let's face it, what we eat is a big factor in determining our quality of life. This year I'm committed to healthy eating, but also want to find easy and quick ways to put my meals together. I don't want fixing healthy meals to be a burden on my time or my budget.

Tyson Grilled & Ready is the answer I need to put together those yummy dishes. I am a huge chicken lover, and having my chicken already cooked and grilled for me is a fabulous time saver.

I made this easy pizza with a thin whole wheat crust, some of my favorite veggies, and topped it with the Tyson Grilled & Ready Oven Roasted Diced Chicken Breasts. I threw on a little low-fat mozzarella cheese, and in the oven it went.

I know some people might not think of pizza as a healthy lunch or dinner, but it can be when you choose the right toppings. When you #JustAddTyson chicken, you are adding a great source of lean protein to your pizza, too.



On my weekly shopping trip at Walmart, I found all these Tyson Grilled & Ready products. There are different flavors and cuts of the chicken breasts, and this makes it so easy to add a healthy source of protein to your meals.

Right now, Walmart has Grilled & Ready on a Rollback price of just $5.87. There is a lot of chicken in the bag, so this is a great price. And it's delicious.

I bought a few bags to keep in the freezer so that it will be easy for me to keep making quick and healthy meals. Like I said, I love chicken and so I can think of all kinds of delicious dishes I can make with Grilled & Ready chicken, ones that my family will love, too.


To make my pizza, I just put a little healthy olive oil in a pan and added some chicken. It only took me about five minutes to heat it up, and it was nice and ready to add to the pizza.

I love this convenience of saving so much time by not having to cook the chicken myself. And truthfully, I don't really like handling raw chicken, so this was another thing I really like about the Tyson Grilled & Ready.


I make lots of pizzas for myself and my family and most times I do make my dough from scratch, but I wanted to try out a new whole wheat pizza crust that I came across.

I usually put a fairly thick layer of spinach on top of the pizza sauce, which gives it a great healthy base. My grandchildren don't even mind eating the spinach this way, and I feel good knowing how good it is for us.

I used red bell pepper, mushrooms, red onions, and the spinach for my veggies. I added my Tyson chicken, and some mozzarella cheese.

I just love this pizza combination, and I think it tastes better than some of the take-out pizzas I've had in the past.


Try Tyson Grilled & Ready Chicken to make a healthy and delicious meal of your own. And don't forget to take advantage of Walmart's great Rollback price of only $5.87 a bag.

Samples will be available at select Walmart locations for their in-store demos, from January 16 -19.

You can also find great daily recipes and tips on the "Just Add This" tab on the Grilled & Ready Facebook page, where they will be giving out weekly prizes, now through March 2014.
