Pizza Can Be Healthy
If you make a pizza yourself you can make it a healthy part of your diet. Any pizza has three basic ingredients: crust, sauce and cheese. We’re going to modify it a little to make it healthier.
First start with a pizza crust, you can buy them at the store pre-baked or you can just get some pizza dough. Pizza sauce is pretty low in calories, it’s basically just tomato, so we can stay with that. For the cheese you’re going to want to make sure to get low fat or fat free mozzarella. To add some flavor you can mix the mozzarella with another low fat or fat free cheese and sprinkle some Parmesan over the top.
Now for the fun part. Time to add some toppings. What do you like? Skip the pepperoni, we’re trying to be healthy here. Use anything that’s a veggie or a fruit: mushrooms, tomatoes, broccoli, mushrooms, onions, olives, spinach, mandarin oranges. Nuts are a good choice too and add some extra protein. Add some herbs and spices on top and you have yourself a healthy, delicious pizza.
