My husband is very very picky and so I was surprised when he absolutely loved this pizza! I brought a piece to a co-worker today and she immediately asked for the recipe. It was delicious! My son thought it was just okay, but I think he would have loved it too if I had put the cayenne on it, which I left off. I used an already roasted chicken bought at the store (they're so cheap!) and next time I'll use a little more cilantro. I also used half Monterey Jack and half Mozzarella cheese, using about twice what the recipe called for. An amazingly easy recipe! Oh, and I only oiled one side of the pizza. Oiling both sides sounded messy.

Boy am I glad I tried this recipe despite my initial doubts. I made my own pizza dough and used halved topping to make a 12" pizza, baked at 400F for 15 minutes and it was perfect. The avocado and cheese blended really nicely and the cherry tomatos are little pockets of flavor to bite in to. Will be making this many more times. The only thing I'd do differently (since I'm using raw pizza dough) is to slightly undercook the chicken first and let it fully cook with the rest of the pizza in the oven, otherwise it's a bit dry.

My husband and I love this recipe. My kids, even though they love avacado, didn't like the "sauce." If I made it for my kids again I would add a little less lime and cilantro, but I love it as is. We couldn't taste any garlic. I would either leave it out or add it into the sauce. I didn't add cayenne because of the kids, but can't wait to try it.

I really enjoyed this recipe. It was super easy to make, and delicious. I made my own dough, so I made sure to undercook the chicken slightly. Nice and moist in the end! wonderful. I added some italian allspice and shrimp to the mix.... great combo! As for the sauce--I added some garlic powder, paprika and pepper in addition to the lemon juice. I used mozzarella, as I didn't have any monteray, and found it to be a great mix--the mild cheese, allowed the spicy guacomole and cherry tomatoes to really stand out....

We loved this!! I made my own dough also -- this made one pizza. The only other thing I did differently was dip the garlic clove in the oil to rub it on the dough. It was the only way I could get it to work.

I was looking for a different way to use up a couple of Avocados and this was it! My husband was sceptical, but loved it! I used extra celantro as the reviews suggested and probably more chees too. I forgot the cayane pepper and just used pepper flakes when serving. This is a keeper.
