A good recipe for pizza

Thanks- looks yummy!

Thanks - this looks delic!! bookmarked it

Another good recipe to add to the mix. I will try this version very soon!

I often do personal pizzas at home. I buy the whole wheat pizza dough from my supermarket, add tomato sauce (no salt added), then turkey pepperoni and veggies like green peppers and onions. Top with some cheese (reduced, low cal). Delish!

This is making me hungry :bigsmile:

I'm always looking for good, low cal pizza recipes. Thanks!

Double Mushroom Pizza

Choosing a premade whole wheat pizza crust not only saves time, but it also introduces whole-grain benefits to the meal.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 2 wedges)

Ingredients
1 (10-ounce) whole wheat Italian thin pizza crust (such as Boboli)
Cooking spray
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 (8-ounce) package presliced cremini or button mushrooms
1 (6-ounce) package presliced portobello mushrooms, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
3 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 cup 2% reduced-fat milk
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons grated Asiago cheese
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 large plum tomato, thinly sliced
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 375°.

2. Place pizza crust on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 5 minutes. Remove crust from oven (do not turn oven off); set crust aside.

3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray; add 1 teaspoon oil to pan, swirling to coat. Add mushrooms to pan; sauté 8 minutes or until moisture evaporates. Stir in thyme; spoon mushroom mixture into a bowl.

4. Add remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil to pan, and reduce heat to medium. Add garlic to pan; cook 45 seconds. Combine milk and flour in a small bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Add milk mixture to pan; cook 2 minutes or until thick, stirring constantly. Add Asiago and pepper, stirring until cheese melts.

5. Spread sauce over crust, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top evenly with mushroom mixture, tomato slices, and mozzarella. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes or until cheese melts and begins to brown. Cut pizza into 8 wedges.

Bump- good recipes! Thank you

Instead of using a crust try putting your pizza toppings on a chicken breast. I made this last night and it was really good. I used thin chicken breasts and pan sauteed them with salt, pepper and red pepper flacks until almost done..I put them on a cookie sheet topped with pizza sauce, turkey pepporoni, and low fat cheese..baked until cheese was melted.

I use a 'healthier' tortilla to make my pizzas. I just put the oven on 400-425 and place my 'pizza' on a cookie sheet and bake it til the edges are brown. It's gets REAL crispy to an almost-crackerlike consistency. I don't even bother with using 2 tortillas...one works great!
