This was terrific...another recipe to add to the Friday Night is Pizza Night cookbook. I love cilantro and found the 1/2 cup a wonderful and tasty addition. Used a "store bought" prepared crust which made the preparation simple and the pizza was cooked and served in no time. An excellent recipe...thanks for sharing!!!!!!!

This was AMAZING. The addition of cilantro was yummy...probably used more than a 1/2 cup. Did change the pineapple for green pepper to reduce the calorie and sugar content just a bit (i get to eat more this way). Thank-you for an easy, healthy and so, incredibly delicious reicpe!! We are already planning different combos with the basic recipe - leftover pork, shrimp, etc!!

This is a great pizza variation! I love Hawaiian pizza and BBQ chicken pizza, so I was immediately interested to try this. I used a large tortilla to make a quick thin crust and homemade BBQ sauce. I put pineapple on only half of the pizza as my fiance doesn't care for it, and we both enjoyed our halves. We LOVE cilantro, so we really enjoyed that addition. Thanks for sharing!
