- 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350° F.

- Drain corn; dice onion, red peppers and chicken. Chop garlic and cilantro.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; coat pan with cooking spray.
- Add corn to skillet and cook 1 minute or until lightly charred. Add onion, red peppers, chicken and garlic; cook 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
- Remove from heat; stir in lime juice.

- Remove from oven and sprinkle each pizza with 1 teaspoon cilantro.
Helpful hints
- Always select natural cheeses instead of processed cheese. Sodium and phosphorus contents are usually lower in natural cheeses.
- Stick with the recommended cheese portion (2 tablespoons per pizza—or less) to keep phosphorus in a reasonable range.
