Spicy Chicken & Pepper Jack Pizza

As a teacher we often talk about kid's learning styles and teaching in a way that reaches as many kids' styles as possible. I remember in college taking these quizzes that would tell you your learning style and I always came up a visual learner. It's so true- you can explain directions to me 10 times, but if you show me once, I get it. The same goes with food. You can describe a dish to me, but if you show it to me- I can tell you if I'd like it. After seeing the pictures of this recipe in the original post linked below I was sold. I knew it was right for me! I made this for dinner quickly on a night we didn't have much time and we both loved it. It actually reminded me a ton of my Mexican chicken pizza. While eating it I knew I had had something similar, and when I checked the ingredients for the Mexican version I realized this was almost exactly the same. That's ok though- the addition of the pepper jack gave this a solid kick and really turned up the flavor! Perfect weeknight meal.
