I wish i could edit the post title, make that lowfact cheese because i am not sure that "sheese" exists.

Has anyone found a good lowfat cheese (and where you found it)?

I cant seem to locate a decent low calories/lowfat sprinkle cheese to top my homemade pizzas with.

    Babybel? You could try grating one of these over your pizza, or even slicing one so it acts like a mozzarella. You could do the same with a laughing cow. I've also seen a lot of people use grated/shredded mozzarella and weight watchers have a low cal cheese. 45 cals per serving. The cheese I use is 95cals for 30g. I use about 45-50g on my pizza, depending on how many calories I have left. This is in the UK though, best I can find around here lol.

    As far as a pizza cheese goes, whatever your Kroger chain of store is. They have a blend called Authentic Hispanic Cheese. It has 70 callories per 1/4 C. It works well on lots of things. The main thing to remember is that very hard cheese has less fat in it so it has less callories.
    I have found that with pizza the best way to save calloies is 1st. Very Very thin crust (Think Cracker), 2nd. Sauce make it yourself so as to not get extra sugar added. 3rd. Topping Veggies and turkey sub items (ie, Pepperoni, Sausage,etc) 4th. Cheese as stated and dont use as much.
    Done right you should get a easy 12" pie at arround 900 callories.
    Good Luck, Cec

    The Sargento Pizza blend is good. I also like just regular 2% shredded mozzarella.

    I just use a low fat mozzarella and slice it thinly. I ball is enough for 2 flatbreads or 1 large pizza base

    As someone who LIVES on flatbread pizzas, I sometimes use WW brand, sometimes the store brand low-fat pizza mix, but usually what I do, for portion control, is grate one stick of reduced fat string cheese and spread it lightly over my flatbreat (which is an Indian roti-- yum!). 70 cals.

    The point is to get the pizza taste with little cheese.
