I know these two foods aren't exactly low in calories, but they are high in protein and great. Tuna or Chicken.

Some low calorie toppings I enjoy are Spinach, Mushrooms, Bell Peppers and Onions.


How low in calories was you thinking of for a pizza overall? Because I've started making a pizza and it's less than 400 calories. It fills a standard dinner plate.

Peppers (red, green yellow)
onions, red or white
spinach
A little bit of olives sometimes. Black or green.
Usually some mozzarella cheese or a little parmesan cheese with it. I go very little on the cheese though.

I use turkey pepperoni. Very low cal and fat but so yummy

I saw an article in a Women's Fitness magazine that put broccoli and zucchini slices on the pizza...I wanna try it but haven't gotten around to it. I keep meaning to see if that magazine is still at my gym.

margherita with fennel sausage is my fav.

goat cheese (very low cal compared to other cheeses!) & Spinach & onion (caramelised if you're not too fussed about some extra sugar)


pineapples & sweet corn
tomatoes & onion & black olives
mushrooms

all sorts of veggies, really! Don't eat meat myself but I'm sure lean chicken with some hot spicy tomato sauce might do the trick if he likes meat?

We do red peppers, red onion, mushrooms, spinach, light brush of oil and with fresh garlic and basil, feta- little red sauce for crust dipping. Amazing! Also, we use the Fabulous Flats Multigrain Crust. Enjoy!

I don't know if this is available to you, but I use:

1 Warburton's Square Wraps
3 TSBP Dolmio Low Fat Bolognese Sauce
12.5g of Mature Light Cheddar
Whole Tin of Tuna Chunks (120g) or 100g of Chicken Breast
1/4 to 1/2 of a Bell Pepper
1/4 to 1/2 of an Onion (Red or White)
2 or 3 Medium Sized Mushrooms

Depending on what I am using, say if I am using Chicken, I try to stay low on the veggies, because I just can't get it all on lol. If I am using tuna I use more veggies because it's seems there's less and it's broken into smaller pieces. You stick it under the grill until the cheese begins to turn slightly brown. Make sure you turn it around so one side isn't all burnt compared to the other.

I don't know if Warburtons sell outside of the UK. If they don't, you might have to find something else to substitute the square wrap.

My very fav. pizza is margharita with mushrooms and red/yellow/orange bell peppers! I even buy a frozen pizza and add the stuff to it. Less than 500 calories for HALF a pizza! (Palermo margharita bruschetta pizza) It's not as good as homemade and probably has too much sodium but it's a quick meal.
Try adding some whole wheat flour to the crust of your homemade pizza. I use half bread flour and half whole wheat and no one notices. Grilled pizza with canadian bacon and pineapple is good too. We even make them over an open fire while camping. Yummy!

turkey pepperoni is about all i add for toppings. all of the toppings i like are super high in fat/calories (i like meat pizzas).

Aureilie

Mushrooms and/or black olives.

Tomatoes, onion, yellow peppers, mushrooms, Pillers turkey pepperettes, sauce, & part skim mozza cheese all on a whole wheat english muffin!~Bake & VOILA!

Mehagon

Mushrooms, Broccoli, Feta (in moderation of course) =0p

And this is a strange one, but I found it at a restaurant recently. . . black bean patties crumbled up! So good on pizza!
