What do you all do for neighbor and friend gifts this time of year? I know in our neighborhood, baked goods show up on our doorstep night after night from kind and generous neighbors, wishing us well for the holiday season. I thought about doing my traditional “bake on Christmas morning” cinnamon rolls to give, but I’ve been so inspired by some recent cooking I’ve done to switch things up a little.

You see, the holidays are always so busy. Between Christmas concerts, parties, family gatherings and then regular sports, homework and school activities, our family meal time really suffers. When the evenings are jam packed full of activities, it makes it so much harder to cook and eat together as a family. So, my thought was… how about this year I help solve this problem for my neighbors? What if I made homemade pizzas to share with baking instructions so they can have a quick and delicious dinner without any of the effort?

Homemade pizza is so easy to make…especially when I use Fleischmann’s® Pizza Crust Yeast. Simply let the dough rest while you prepare your other pizza ingredients, and it should be ready to pat into a pan and fill with toppings in no time.

So, what do you think? Would a night off in the kitchen be a welcome gift to you? Do you have neighbors who would probably find relief in the gift of a homemade meal for their family? Homemade pizza is definitely not a traditional Christmas gift, but I think that needs to change. If someone showed up on my porch with this Chicken Nacho Homemade pizza in their hands, I’d be happy as can be! I’m sure your friends and neighbors would be too! Enjoy!

Chicken Nacho Pizza Recipe

A simple homemade pizza crust serves as the base for a loaded Chicken Nacho pizza!
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 18 minutes
Total Time 38 minutes
Servings 1 12-inch pizza
Author Dine & Dish

Ingredients

  • For the crust:
  • 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 envelope Fleischmann's® Pizza Crust Yeast
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup very warm water 120° to 130°F
  • 3 tablespoons Mazola® Corn Oil
  • For the toppings:
  • 1 pound boneless chicken cut into small cubes
  • 1 package taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup refried beans
  • 1/4 cup salsa
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
  • Favorite nacho toppings as desired: diced tomatoes sliced black olives, diced green onions, jalapeno slices, sour cream, guacamole OR salsa

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Combine 1 cup flour, undissolved yeast and salt in a large bowl. Add very warm water and oil; mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Gradually add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky. Knead** on a floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes. Cover and let rest on floured surface while preparing toppings.
  3. Heat a large skillet and cook cubed chicken all the way through. Add taco seasoning and water according to package directions. Cook according to package directions.
  4. Roll dough into 14 x 10-inch rectangle; place on greased baking sheet or 15 x 10-inch rimmed pan OR, pat dough with floured hands, pressing gently to fill greased pan. Form a rim by pinching the edge of the dough; prick surface with fork.
  5. Combine refried beans and 1/4 cup salsa; carefully spread over crust. Top with reserved seasoned chicken and sprinkle with cheese. Bake on lowest oven rack 15 to 18 minutes until center is set and crust is golden brown.
  6. Remove from oven and top with favorite nacho toppings - diced tomatoes, sliced black olives, or diced green onions.. Cut into squares and serve immediately. Serve with sour cream, guacamole or salsa, if desired
  7. *If you don't have a thermometer, water should feel very warm to the touch.
  8. **To knead the dough, add just enough flour to the dough and your hands to keep the dough from sticking. Flatten dough and fold it toward you. Using the heels of your hands, push the dough away with a rolling motion. Rotate dough a quarter turn and repeat the "fold, push and turn" steps. Keep kneading dough until it is smooth and elastic. Use a little more flour if dough becomes too sticky, always working the flour into the ball of dough.

    Our family is a huge fan of nacho pizza, we don’t even bother with the traditional cheese or pepperoni.

I always read so much in the last couple weeks of the year, I could never have my “best of” choices finalized. Christmas break is my favorite time to read read read!
.
I’m finishing up All About Us and The Prettiest Star, and then have this awesome stack to tackle! What should I read next? So many good ones to choose from! Will any of these make my 2020 top ten?

Feeling festive with @ella.r.doyle & @kelly_k_doyle ! 🌲 
.
This is the recipe my sister-in-law uses and it is the BEST tasting, no fail sugar cookie recipe. It’s from a really old issue of @tasteofhome magazine with a frosting recipe she wrote down in the margin. I could eat so many of these and never get tired of them! If you want the recipe let me know and I’ll dm you the picture! Is making decorated cut out cookies one of your Christmas traditions?

It’s a book giveaway! I often get people asking me for book recommendations. Talking books is one of my favorite things to do! So when @librofm gave me the opportunity to give away three audio copies of any audiobook I wanted to, I knew immediately which book I wanted to share.
.
@roblowe book, Stories I Only Tell My Friends is the audiobook I recommend to EVERYONE. It is a book I listened to years ago, not expecting to love it, but I absolutely did. First of all, Rob Lowe narrates...so there’s that lovely bonus. But Stories I Only Tell My Friends is a funny, raw, emotional, informative, peek inside of the life of a really fascinating celebrity.
.
I wasn’t a Rob Lowe super fan before. I haven’t watched West Wing (I know, I know), Brothers & Sisters, Parks & Rec, or any of his TV shows, but I have always been a HUGE Brat Pack fan. Well, after listening to this audiobook I am a big fan (and his other audiobook, Love Life, is great too).
.
Long story short, I have three codes through @librofm to give to 3 people. To enter, leave a comment on this post by midnight CST on 12/16 telling me what your favorite audiobook is and why! Also, definitely check out Libro.fm - the best audiobook platform that also gives back to local bookstores!

“I can’t wait for my seasonal depression to meet my year 2020 depression.” 😩
.
If S.A.D is something you worry about each year, but especially this year, let me introduce you to my seasonal affective disorder game changer, the @sunrisesensations light therapy lamp. I ordered one of these lamps last year at the recommendation of my friend @leslieradams and it is the best (& most stylish) light therapy lamp I’ve ever used. I absolutely love it and highly recommend it...it’s well worth the money.
.
@sunrisesensations has a new, smaller lamp called Bright Box. The size snd functionality is perfect for a nightstand or office desk. Let me know if you have any questions about how these lamps continue to help me fight those pesky winter blues! Check out Sunrise Sensations to find the right UV free light therapy box for you!

Alright, alright, alright! It’s time to talk about how we can support our local bookstore during the holidays and beyond! As you consider buying gifts this year, make sure you shop local for all the book people on your list! One unique and super easy way you can support your favorite local bookstores is with an audiobook subscription to @librofm Yes! Audiobooks! With Libro.fm you can financially support your local bookstore AND buy audiobooks all at the same time. Each audiobook purchase supports the independent book store of your choice! Do it for yourself and buy some audiobooks for friends too!
.

If you need audiobook ideas, hit me up. I’ve listened to so many great books this year that will make it on my top favorites list, including Greenlights by @officiallymcconaughey It’s narrated by the author and is so worth the listen! Your ears will thank you!
.
PS my favorite #localbookstore @rainydaybooks is under renovation which makes it even better that I can still safely support them from the comfort of my own home!

Have you ever dreamed of being a writer? 2 of the business coaching clients I’m currently working with have dreams of being a published fiction book author and cookbook author. Each week we’ve been chipping away at their big goals, making these dreams of theirs more and more of a reality. And each week I have this little nudging feeling inside that reminds me that writing a book was once a dream of mine...and I’ve gotten so far away from that dream. I barely even write anymore. Heck - writing an instagram caption is even a challenge. As someone who used to be a really good writer, that’s so frustrating to me. Where’d my voice go?
.

William Morrow Publishers recently sent me the book Make Me Rain: Poems and Prose by the incredibly gifted writer Nikki Giovanni. This book is full of poems and prose relevant to todays world. I imagined Giovanni walking around observing life, with a notebook tucked under her arm everywhere she went, and writing. Just pulling out the notebook and writing. I used to be that way and this beautiful book makes me want to write again.
.

Are you a writer? Do you journal, write poetry, write for fun, or are you working on a book? What does your writing practice look like? I think the biggest key for me is to just get back to it. Dedicate a time each day and at the very least just write - about life, observations, and more. Writer friends or journaling experts ...I’d love to hear what your writing practice looks like. Tips, tricks, ideas to help get what’s inside out on paper.
.

Thank you @williammorrowbooks for gifting me this beautiful book. It’s inspired and awakened something inside of me and I appreciate that so much!

Pumpkin Pancakes! Do you top them with syrup or powdered sugar? Or something else completely?
.
I first shared this copycat IHOP pumpkin pancake recipe on the blog in 2008 and we’ve been making them all the time ever since. I finally got up the gumption to take some new pictures - it was a blue moon this weekend after all , which is about how often I get that update old pictures motivation 😂 Link to the recipe is in my profile. Enjoy it while pumpkin season is still in full on mode.
