Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Fold your leftover slice in half lengthwise, crust to tip. Then cut off the triangle point so it folds into a neat little sandwich shape.
Place your folded pizza (crust side down) in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Let it sizzle until the bottom gets golden and crisp.
Once crisp, add a splash of water to the pan, then cover it with a lid. The steam will melt the cheese without burning the crust. Dab off excess oil with a paper towel if your slice is extra greasy.
Open up your pizza and spread a spoonful of high-protein Sturdy Marinara Sauce on the inside. Layer in your grilled chicken and dressed greens. Toss in some thinly sliced onions or peppers here too.
Top it with the leftover crust triangle, press it down gently with a spatula, and let the whole thing toast together for another minute.
Slide your pizza sandwich onto a plate, pour a little marinara into a dipping dish, and prepare for the happiest way to eat one slice of pizza.
