Jalapeno Popper Pizza

published by JessLynn on Mar 21, 2008

Looking for something different for dinner? This simple pizza is a great alternative and gives a bit of a kick.

After years of making a jalapeño popper dip, I decided to try to make it into a pizza. After several tries and major adjustments, I came up with the following recipe. You can always make your own pizza dough; but, for a quick and easy meal, I cheat and use Pillsbury refrigerated pizza crust. Be sure your jalapeños are finely chopped.

Ingredients

  • Pam, non-stick spray
  • One package Pillsbury refrigerated pizza crust
  • One package cream cheese
  • 1/8 cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup pizza sauce
  • 8 jalapeños, finely chopped
  • 1 can (4 oz) green chilies
  • 1/3 cup cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup mozzarella cheese

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 350°
  2. Spray a cookie sheet with Pam
  3. Open the pizza dough and spread evenly onto the cook
  4. Beat the cream cheese, oil and pizza sauce until well blended and creamy
  5. By hand, mix the jalapeños and chilies into the cream cheese mixture
  6. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the pizza dough
  7. Top with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses
  8. Bake for approximately 30 minutes or until crust is a light golden brown.
