    I've been using light or whole grain English muffins, toasted for a minute first. Top with a bit of whatever pizza sauce you like (I think I used Prego) orrrr my favorite is just topping with a bit of olive oil and minced garlic - either one is good. Top with fresh mozzarella, basil, tomatoes or turkey pepperoni, baked for 5-6 minutes then I turn up the broiler to make the cheese super bubbly. I don't have calorie info off the top of my head but I can put it together for you if you'd like.


    I do this too!!!! its the best !!!

    I also use high fiber English muffins. Toast them, put a drizzle of olive oil, add some pizza sauce, shredded cheese, and toppings. I usually eat 2, feel comfortably full, and have dinner for between 350 and 400 calories depending on toppings. Once all put together I broil them in my oven for a few minutes.

    *If I make pepperoni, I microwave te pepperoni's for 1 minute in paper towels to get them crispy.

    *Recently I have been adding mexican spiced chicken, red peppers, and jalapeño rings and making southwestern pizza which I love.

    Here's what I usually make. You can take out the chicken if it's still too high cal.

    435 cal
    54g pro
    15g fat
    30g carb
    10g fiber

    That is like the perfect meal right there! I think my whole family would eat that. Even my picky husband! Thank you!

    Got to say,I'm so glad I stumbled onto this thread. Pizza is always been DH and I's weakness so when it was suggested last night, I put it on pita bread. So awesome!

    I make my own dough with plain Greek yogurt, while wheat flour, salt and baking powder. Very easy, and not too bad for you!

    I make mine with regular yummy ingredients, just weighed properly (no cauliflower). The only change I make is using a tortilla for the crust as I prefer it thinner anyway so why not save a few cals!

    1 x tortilla
    80g passata
    whatever veggies/meat you want
    60g grated mozarella

    Usually comes in at under 500 cals.

    See if your store has Joseph's Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Pita Bread - 60 calories and just 8 g carbs (and 4 g fiber) per pita! I add a little pizza sauce, cheeses & veggies and it's great.

    I also still eat pizza, but only one slice of my absolute favorite take out kind and accompany that with a big fresh crunchy salad loaded with veggies and just a drizzle of dressing.

    If I make it at home I use a whole wheat tortilla and load it with mushrooms and green onions, a few black olives, 1/4 LB hamburger, a little homemade sauce and top it with 1 oz weighed out mozzeralla and sprinkle with 1/2 T real shreaded parmesan. Too much cheese is a problem for me bc I love it, so I have to weigh it.

    I use a portobello mushroom. I chop up the stem and use it as a topping along with 1/4 cup pizza sauce, cheese and one piece Canadian bacon. I cook it on a baking sheet for 15 minutes at 350 in the oven. I really love them and they fill the bill. The mushroom reminds me of thick crust which I like better than thin crust.
