Black N' Blue Pizza

Submitted by Chef Buggsy Mate

"No "knead" to call for pizza delivery. This is a great pizza to make when you want something simple. It uses frozen bread dough for the crust and a store bought rotisserie chicken as part of the toppings. Best of all, this recipe will get you out of the pepperoni or cheese pizza rut."
