Chicken Caesar Salad Pizza...mmmmm!

Just made this one tonight, and looooved it :)

Chicken Caesar Salad Pizza

3/4 lb chicken tenders (uncooked)
1/2 cup Caesar dressing, plus 2 tbsp (I used Ken's Caesar Lite - it's really good)
1 store bought pizza crust (Pillsbury)
1 3/4 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
1/4 c shredded Parmesan cheese

Salad Topping:
4 cups hearts of Romaine lettuce, shredded
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 c Caesar dressing
1/4 c shredded Parm
1 cup seasoned croutons
2 tomatoes, diced

Directions:
Combine uncooked chicken tenders with 1/2 cup salad dressing. Heat skillet and cook until no longer pink inside. Remove from heat and cut into bite sized pieces.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Roll out Pillsbury crust and brush with 2 tbsp dressing. Bake for 5-7 mins.

When chicken is cooked and dough baked, spread cut up chicken evenly over crust. Spread Mozzarella and Parmesan over chicken and bake for 5 more minutes - until crust is beginning to brown.

While pizza is baking, combine all salad ingredients. When pizza is done cooking, top with salad and serve!

For storing leftovers, I suggest storing pizza and salad separately for easier reheating.
