SHRIMP AND PINEAPPLE PARTY PIZZA

Shrimp and Pineapple Party Pizza image

This flavor-packed appetizer is a sweet, smoky, savory sensation! If you are traveling with this pizza, parbake the crust and assemble the pizza at home, then finish the baking on-site. When that's not possible, it is still delicious at room temperature! If you're not a seafood fan, substitute chicken for the shrimp. -Jamie Miller, Maple Grove, Minnesota
