FOR THE CRUST:
20 oz canned chicken, drained well (if you don’t like canned chicken, use finely shredded rotisserie chicken)
1 large egg
½ cup grated parmesan
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp italian seasoning
½ tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
FOR THE CHICKEN PARMESAN TENDERS (if adding)
3 Chicken Tenders (with the tendon removed)
1 egg
⅓ cup grated parmesan
1.5 tsp italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Avocado oil for pan frying
TO FINISH THE PIZZA
½ cup of your favorite marinera
8-9 slices fresh mozzarella cheese
¼ cup shaved parmesan
Fresh Chopped parsley for garnish
Preheat your oven to 375°, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and spray the parchment with nonstick cooking spray.
Combine all the chicken crust ingredients into a bowl, and mix while breaking it up really well with a fork. pour the mixture onto your prepared baking sheet and press down using your hands while forming your desired shape for your crust. You want to try to get it about 1/4 inch thick. Bake for 35-45 minutes depending on desired crispiness.
While the crust is cooking prepare the Chicken parmesan tenders (if using)
Whisk the egg in a dish, and combine the parmesan and seasonings in a separate dish.
Dip the chicken in the whisked egg, shake off the excess before placing it in the parmesan mixture, and pat the chicken until fully coated.
In a skillet add enough oil for a shallow fry, and heat on medium-high.
Gently add the chicken tenders into the hot oil and fry on both sides until browned and cooked all the way through. (165° internal) remove the chicken from the pan and set on a paper towel to drain and rest for a couple minutes. Once cooled, slice the chicken into bite- sized pieces.
Once the crust is done baking and the chicken is prepared, it’s time to assemble the pizza. Add your favorite marinera to the crust and spread a nice thin layer (too thick and the crust will get floppy) top with the sliced mozzarella, chicken, and shaved parmesan, p

I feel like sheet pan meals are the ultimate lazy and easy meal, this one is perfect for those nights you just don’t wanna put in a ton of effort, but still want a good dose of protein and veggies. Nothing fancy, but still full of flavor. This meal is also great for easy meal weekly prep. PS… it would be so good with shrimp added!
Old bay Sausage and Veggie Sheet Pan Dinner
3 medium sized zucchini or yellow squash (or a mix of both, chopped
2 heads of broccoli, cut into florets
1/2 onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 12oz smoked sausage links, sliced into coins (I used turkey sausage)
1/4 c avocado oil
2 heaping tbsp old bay seasoning
2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp pepper
1-2 tsp ranch seasoning mix (optional, I love it)
Preheat oven to 400°
Place all your ingredients except the sausage into a large bowl or you can just mix them together on the sheet pan. (Even less dishes!)
Shake well to fully coat the veggies with the seasoning mixture.
Pour contents out onto your prepared baking sheet and spread evenly.
Top with the sausage
Bake for 20-25 minutes. If you like your veggies more tender, give them 10 more minutes.

I got this idea from @louisd_fitnesscoach and it’s great! Super high protein and filling! Next time I think I will use a vanilla flavored yogurt for some added sweetness, as my protein powder isnt sweet at all. This tasted like a dark chocolate sea salt bar. Definitely something I’ll make again!
What I used:
6.3 oz Greek yogurt
two scoops @nakednutrition choc protein powder
2 TBSP pb powder
1 TBSP cocoa powder
1 TBSP coconut oil
Sea salt
In a bowl mix together the yogurt, pb poder, and protein powder. Melt the coconut oil and cocoa powder in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Pour over the yogurt mixture and spread, top with salt and freeze for 5 mins.

Turkey egg roll in a bowl
(I doubled the recipe in the video)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 lb 90% lean ground turkey
12 oz bag broccoli slaw
1/4 c chicken broth
3 tablespoons soy sauce or coconut aminos
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 tsp salt or Wasabi Rum Salt from @thesaltedroots
Sriracha to taste(optional)
Toasted sesame seeds for garnish
Sliced green onion for garnish
To make the sauce:
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, ground ginger, pepper, crushed red pepper, salt, and sriracha (if using). Stir well and set aside.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil, and the ground turkey and cook the turkey while breaking it up until it’s fully cooked through. Add the broccoli slaw and cook until it’s as tender as you like. I personally like to leave it crunchy, so I only let it sauté for about 2 minutes. Add the sauce and stir well, cook another 2 minutes. Top with toasted sesame seeds, and green onion.
