"Healthified" Greek Chicken Pizza
50% less fat • 66% more fiber • 33% fewer calories than the original recipe—see the comparison. We tossed up a heart-healthier, whole wheat flour crust, dashed the salt and olive oil, and added plum tomatoes to make this pizza a wiser choice. From eatbetteramerica.

1 package regular active dry yeast

2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon cornmeal
