Chipotle Chicken Pizza

This is another knock off of a CPK pizza, although I admit I've never actually had this one at their restaurant. This is just my best (and frugal) attempt at re-creating it. In order to keep the total cost for the meal down, we ate simple side dishes - carrots and celery with dip and strawberries ($.77 / lb!). You can find the recipe here.
