    Inspired by this post, I made this for dinner last night. It was soooo good! I used sliced tomato instead of a sauce and less veggies with chicken. Came in at around 240 cals and it tasted like normal pizza! Thanks!

    Got mine in the oven as I write!
    Sprinkled some mixed herbs, garlic salt and a little bit of frozen sweetcorn on it, on top of a sprinkling of Mozzerella, some Ragu tomato and basil pasta sauce and 2 slices of turkey sandwich slices torn up..

    Am so excited lol!

    I've actually been making something similar for dinner all week.

    Here is what I've been doing:

    Pre-heat the wrap in grill for a minute or 2 (turning half way through) to toast it/make it crispy.

    Warbuton's square wrap (159 calories each, but it still far less calories then a pizza base), with 100g (I would use half of that since it comes out soggy - but I like sauce!) generic Italian pasta or pizza sauce - I used the Tomato and Herb Pasta master sauce from Lidl, since it was cheap (only 20something pence!) which is 33 calories, add any toppings you want. At first I wanted to add a lot but you end up overloading the pizza, so I only used half, I used half a bell pepper/capsicum - 19 calories (probably even less calories but the one I used in the list came to that), 100g mushrooms - 22 calories, half a ball of low fat mozzarella - about 62g, lidl linessa Mozzarella - 103 calories and 35g canned Tuna for 37 calories - came to 373 calories for the whole Pizza!

    I didn't have Mozzarella today so used two slices of low low cheese for burger slices - 30 calories each! and used onion instead of bell pepper and it tasted even better (think I prefer the taste of cheddar) and it was only 337 calories. Feel like I'm cheating on my diet here :P

    I've been eating it with coleslaw (with yogurt not mayo!) and stir fry veg.

    It was a pretty cheap meal, since I bought the wraps when they were reduced in price and put them in the freezer.

    I've been making it under the grill probably only took about 5 to 6 minutes to prepare and cook, very easy!

    I made this today and it was so easy and delicious! I used a 100 calorie whole grain tortilla and added boar's head turkey pepperoni *(1oz) and it was still under 400 cal. Thanks so much for the idea. This is a keeper.

    This pizza has sparked a craving, I cannot wait to try this! I have tried on pita bread and add a slice or two of ham, and it is very good.

    that looks really good!!! I have tried that but mine always ends up kind of soft and soggy in the center and reeeaaaal crispy on the outside lol ....not sure what I set the oven at though....prolly rushed it lol

    That does have a tendency to happen. I leave mine in a bit longer and there are also pizza pans with tiny holes in them if one was so inclined. Think they help that issue :)

    I use the pizza pan with the holes and mine are perfect. However I only use half a cup of cheese and make sure all my toppings are even on the pizza all the way to the edge.

    Got the thumbs up from my chef boyfriend last night and honestly, these take less effort than ordering online. Next time it's 'pizza night' we will be having these instead. I get to eat enough to fill me up with 1/4 of the cals and fat (I checked last night compared to the pizza I usually have) and they are a great quick way to get all my needs in before and after derby and I can keep getting ready while it's in the oven.
    We had steak-pizza-pasta night after a hard training session for less than 600 cals!!! WHOO! And I wasn't STARVING last night or this morning.

    "For when you want some pizza, but don't feel like spending 1000 calories on 2-3 slices of delivery."

    Ingredients:

    -1 large tortilla (80 calories, if you use Low Carb/High Fiber "La Tortilla Factory" brand as pictured below)
    46b00814613f77e79a2f6cc6c0a94e5a1a374fabce6afdcb42a22d3f0f04faa23g.jpg

    -2/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (160 calories)
    -1/4 of a green bell pepper, diced (~25 calories)
    -1/4 of a medium onion, diced (~20 calories)
    -2 large mushrooms, sliced thin (~10 calories)
    -5 tbsp pizza or spaghetti sauce (~70 calories)
    -Garlic powder (optional)
    -Pepper (optional)

    Prep:

    1. Chop veggies. (These are my favorites, but feel free to experiment!)

    2. Chop veggies some more.

    3. Prep tortilla with sauce.

    4. Pile on veggies and seasoning. The mushrooms shrink as they cook, so try to get them all on there. You might have some leftover onion, but then again maybe not if you really like onion.

    5. Cook in a 350 degree oven (that's 176 C for my friends across the pond) for about 10-15 minutes. Check often; everyone has a different preference for pizza, after all. Cook longer for less crispy veggies and vice versa.

    6. Admire pizza for about 5-7 minutes, because it's way too hot to eat right now.

    7. Okay, you can eat it now. If you used the exact same ingredients pictured and amounts, the pizza will be about 360-400 calories. Enjoy! :)
