Pizza!!!!!! Mmmm delicious!

  • Okay, so I have FINALLY scored a quick and easy pizza fix!! This is more of the traditional pizza flavors. I wish I would have taken a picture, I will do that next time!

    235 Calories
    60 cal - Joseph's pita
    15 cal - 2T of pizza sauce
    70 cal - 1/4 c 2% mozzarella cheese
    35 cal - 8 turkey pepperoni
    25 cal - 4 black olives sliced
    30 cal - red onion, red and yellow peppers, mushrooms

    I wasn't sure how well the Joseph's pita would work, so I started off by trying to crisp it in a pan, that somewhat worked, then I put the sauce and cheese and had lightly sauteed everything else. I added it on top and baked at 350 degrees for 10 minutes directly on the oven rack. OMG, I was either really hungry or it was truly very tasty!!

    FYI - I always have red and yellow bell peppers julienned in my fridge, they go well with EVERYTHING, from a sandwich to eggs or pizza!
  • Here is a pizza I had made some time back....
    (1) Flatout Light Italian Flatbread
    1 tsp Greek Salad Dressing (I already had this made in my fridge - finely chopped garlic, olive oil, greek seasoning and oregano)
    Handful of fresh spinach
    1 oz feta cheese
    4 black olives
    Handful of sliced red onions
    14 Grilled Shrimp (seasoned with Greek Seasoning and sauteed in 1 t of EVOO)

    Here are the total values for this entire pizza:
    Calories: 325
    Fat: 12.5g
    Carbs: 23g
    Dietary Fiber: 11g
    Net Effective Carbs: 9g
    Protein: 37g

  • Mmmm.. pizza.

    I like making pizzas with the Flatout Flatbreads too! Most of my pizzas end up being around 300 calories or less. It is a quick and easy meal for me. Even my S.O. who is a huge pizza fan likes these pizzas. I do usually add more cheese on his and most of the time anchovies (BLECK!) at his request.

    For a crispy crust for the flatbread pizzas:

    Bake the flatbread alone for 6 - 7 minutes at 350 degrees on a cookie sheet.
    Flip over.
    Top with toppings and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the toppings are cooked.

    Pizza is the one item that can rip me off my diet. I love it. Of course, being a food lover its hard to stick with the one or two slices (no control). It calls to me... so thanks for the tips on some low-cal delish looking pizzas. Def gonna try these.
