Lo-Cal GOOD for you, Pizza? Recipe

Notes:
Just because you are trying to eat healthy doesn’t mean you have to skip pizza, just make it at home. On ANYTHING! : ) I make pizza like crazy, I just make sure to make it healthier.  Do you know how much sodium is in pizza/pasta sauce? Some have over 500mg in one TINY serving. If you get NO SALT ADDED sauce it usually cuts the sodium in half, with only natural sodium. It may not taste as sweet, that’s why you add the spices and garlic- it marinates in the sauce while cooking, giving it a really yummy flavor. Adding veggies like green/red pepper or spinach makes it even better for you! Sneak in that extra serving of veggies! Here is a good low cal lunch:

1 Pizza muffin cut in half = 2 mini pizzas  120cals

1/4 cup cheese = 80 cals

1 serving of sauce = 70 cals

 ONLY 270 CALORIES! Then you can add:

1 serving of baby carrots - 30cals

1 Light N Fit Yogurt- 70 cals

= 370 CALORIES! You can even fit in a serving of nuts, or a 100 calorie pack for a small desert! 

(Calories vary by which ‘wheat’ bread you choose, pitas, tortillas, and loaf are all diff. calories.)

Servings: 1

Ingredients:
(NO-SALT ADDED) pasta/pizza sauce (Pizza sauce is a great source of veggies if it's not LOADED with sodium!)
Low Moisture/Part Skim OR Fat free Mozzerella cheese
Oregeno, basil, garlic (for taste!)
Veggies: Green/Red pepper, spinach, etc.
Whole Wheat/Grain Version of any of the following: Pita, Tortilla, English Muffins, italian style loaf

Directions:
On any of the whole wheat breads, add 1 serving of pasta/pizza sauce, spread evenly.
I like to add the oregeno,basil, and garlic under the cheese to give the sauce more taste. (It kind of marinates while cooking)
1 Serving of cheese
Bake! (Usually 325 is perfect)
