Kayla's Publix Trip 11.8.12

I'm so excited about my couponing trip today! This is my first big haul & I was finally able to save well over 50%! As you can see, toilet paper is my weakness. Angel Soft double roll 12 packs were on sale this week for $5.00 each....they're regularly priced $9.95 each! I had a $1/1 Target printable and a $1.50/1 Publix store coupon that I stacked to get each pack for only $2.50! That's only $0.001 cents per square foot!

(I apologize for such low quality pictures, I had to use my iPhone camera)

Super Simple BBQ Chicken Pizza Recipe

I made this pizza tonight and it was SO GOOD! My husband loved it & the best part was....it was cheap, easy & fast! Since I began couponing I've also began planning my family's meals out for the week according to what's on sale so that I maximize my savings! I definitely recommend doing this if you don't already.

I had a picture of my finished pizzas but it has mysteriously disappeared?! So, I guess I'll just share the recipe. *EDIT* I made it again & took pictures!

 

 

 

BBQ Chicken Pizza

Ingredients:

 

Pizza Dough ($2.69 at Publix Bakery)

Perdue Short-Cuts cooked, sliced chicken breasts 

  Kraft shredded cheese
  Kraft BBQ Sauce

 diced red onion (optional)
minced garlic (optional)

Instructions: 

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

 

First, flour your rolling surface & roll out your pizza dough. We like thin crust so I rolled it as thinly as I could but you can definitely do any type crust you like. Next, spread the BBQ sauce over the top of your pizza dough, I used about 1-2 cups. Then, evenly distribute the red onions, chicken and cheese (I used Pepperjack & Mozzarella cheeses) across the pizza.

 

Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

 

 This recipe can be adjusted in so many ways to suit your family's taste buds! Keep in mind that any cooked chicken, as well as, any brand of cheese & BBQ sauce can be used....these were what I bought on sale & with coupons though:) I hope y'all enjoy it as much as we did!

Today was one of those days when I'm so thankful for coupons!
