Macaroni and BBQ Chicken Pizza – Budget Friendly Meals

So, I am going to give you a second to digest the title of this post. I’m sure, at first, it seems a little odd. Well, this Macaroni and BBQ Chicken pizza came about on a day when I wanted to use food we already so I a) didn’t have to make a trip to the store and b) didn’t have to spend any additional money on food since I had already spent our food budget for the week/month {I know the 1st and 15th can be particularly sticky times of the month for most people’s budgets}. I called out to the fam and asked “what do you want for dinner?” The response was: BBQ chicken, pizza and macaroni and cheese. So, I decided to put them all together and this crazy but so delicious pizza was made. Using what I had and focusing on low cost ingredients made this truly one of my budget recipes.

Ingredients for Macaroni and BBQ Chicken Pizza:

One large pizza crust
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup Kraft BBQ sauce
1 box Velveeta Shells & Cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese

Let’s Make It:

1) Season your chicken breast with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken any way you choose and then shred. Toss with 1 cup of BBQ sauce. {Alternatively, you can use a Rotisserie chicken and just shred it.}

2) Prepare Velveeta Shells & Cheese according to the package directions.

3) Preheat oven to 425 degrees. 

4) Spoon Shells & Cheese on top of pizza crust. Top with BBQ chicken. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over top of the chicken. Bake for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Do you have days where everyone in your family wants something different? How about times when you want to spend as little as possible on your meal but still please everyone?
