Pizza?

Options
Hello I still have remaining calories1,155 ,carbs163;fat 41,protein 42 and I already ate my lunch.

Tonight is my familys regular pizza night, and we make home made pizza. Is there a way I can make a healthy pizza I can eat or at least a certain amount of slices.
Thanks!

    i would suggest making a thin crust and taking it very easy on the cheese. pizza has so many calories. once slice is around 400 calories. enjoy your family pizza night!

    I plan for pizza night and most slices are 390 cal but if you make a veggie pizza you can bring that down to 290 or so. just use mushrooms, onions, peppers, thin slices of tomato, and olives. If others want meat then just pit it on half or 3/4 and that saves you 1/4. Good luck

    thin whole wheat crust and do the modern "arugula and veggie topping" with some grated manchego or parmesan not the melted mozz?

    Start with a pre-made "ultra this" pizza crust.

    Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce (or tomato paste) on crust.
    Sprinkle liberally with curry and cracked pepper.

    Toppings....
    chop up about 3-4 oz of buffalo chicken (we buy this in bulk at Sams Club and is a regular staple).
    about 4-5 green onions chopped up
    2-3 oz of fat free feta cheese.

    Absolutely amazing, and the entire pizza is about 1200 calories (200/slice).

    I use the flat out bread as my pizza crust and usually make myself a BBQ chicken pizza. It's very good and the flat out tastes like thin crust. Here's their website for recipes and such....

    My kids love making their own pizza - i usually get turkey pepperoni for them and whatever odds and ends sound good for pizza toppings.

    My local pizza place makes an awesome pizza w/ an olive oil base and topped w/ chicken, jalepenos, cilantro and tomato. I've been thinking about replicating it....hmmmm....lol

    I agree simple and easy. whole wheat crust would be even better. Pineapple and canadian baccon is so good too.

    My family loves my homemade pizzas too.
    I have switched from the pizza crust to the whole wheat and even the tomato tortillas for a thin crust and then start piling on the veggies.
    They love it and I know I can enjoy it as well.
    I have also done a meat and cheese one for them and loaded one like a supreme (with all the veggies) for me and had leftovers.

    Have fun with it and enjoy your family pizza night
