My Girl, Paula: Fast and Furious Thai Chicken Pizza

Most of your probably already have heard me mention the fact that I just love Paula Deen! I joined a blog called My Girl, Paula, which is where members make Paula's recipes and they are posted on the site after being posted on the members own blog. So, here is my first recipe! Although, I did make Paula's pork chop with cranberry mustard sauce for Christmas dinner, I wasn't a member of this site yet. This was really yummy! Paula's original recipe can be found here, but since I made this spur of the moment I tweaked it a little and used a different type of sauce and also made mine mini!

Recipe:
6 rhodes frozen dinner rolls
1/4 cup bbq sauce
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/8 cup soy sauce
1 cup cooked shredded chicken
1/4 cup scallions
1 carrot, grated
1 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
chopped peanuts and cilantro for garnish if your heart so desires

Proof the rolls according to package directions on a baking sheet sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. After they have risen, flatten them into circles about 4 inches in diameter. Mix bbq sauce, peanut butter and soy sauce in a small bowl. For the chicken, you can boil a chicken breast, used canned chicken, or a rotisserie, whichever may be more convenient for you. Evenly spread sauce onto dough. Top with chicken, carrots, scallions and cheese. Bake in the oven at 400 for about 10 minutes. or until cheese is melted.

Texas Pinwheels


Corny name, right? Oh well. I figured, I live in Texas, they have that Tex-Mex flavor to them and they are pinwheels...so why not Texas pinwheels? These are super easy to make and great to leave out as finger food for game day! Or any day for that matter :)

Recipe:
1 package flour tortillas
8 oz softened cream cheese
1/2 chopped tomato
2 chopped green onions
1 cup cooked, shredded chicken (I boiled mine, but you could use canned)
1 tsp cumin
1 Tbsp cayenne pepper

Combine all of the ingredients (minus the tortillas) in a large mixing bowl. Spread a spoonful or two of mixture over tortillas. Roll up burrito style and place on tray or baking dish. Chill in refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. Cut tortilla rolls into one inch sections. Place on tray and serve!
