    I'm gonna give the poster the benefit of the doubt and assume that's spinach, because I've never heard of a lettuce pizza. FYI, spinach and pepperoni is the boss of pizzas.

    I don't often get a craving for pizza, but when I do, I go for a nice long bicycle ride ... and then pick one up for dinner. :)

    Similar plan to me. If I know I want pizza, I'll head out and walk for a few hours. 20k steps justifies a nice large dominos meat feast!

    When kids were small, I made it on flour tortillas. Sans greenery. "Mexican pizza." It was ok, but even then they weren't fooled.

    You lost me at the lettuce. Lettuce has no place on a pizza and never will.

    I love wood oven pizza with prosciutto and fresh arugula that just slightly wilts with the heat.. but definitely not for everyone some people hate it like that

    Looks mildly appetizing, my concern is if you don't immediately eat it you have a pizza bread pudding.

    Have you ever heard of naan? They sell it at Aldi and it's amazing! I prefer the garlic naan and yesterday for lunch I made a pizza on that with spinach, 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella, 1/4 cup of alfredo sauce, and 3 oz of chicken with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese after it came out of the oven. I baked it at 350 for about 15 mins and omg it was amazing. The whole pizza comes out to only 633 calories and I'm not gonna lie, I ate the whole thing. It was very satisfying

    Naan is as caloric as regular pizza crust. So not exactly a good alternative. ;)

    And only a 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella for the entire pizza? How non-pizzalike and sad.

    I'd rather have a slice or two of really good pizza once in a while than be able to eat all of the quasi-crap I can stuff into myself every day.

    Quality over quantity matters to me. :)

    That in no way would help me if I want pizza.

    That would not satisfy my craving for a pizza.

    On the other hand, I can make an a filling, meal-sized version of actual pizza (usually with more vegetables and lean meat and a real crust) for the same amount of calories I'd normally spend on lunch or dinner (more than 262, as I normally like to do around 500 or so, depending on the rest of the day).

    If it works for you, though, excellent!

    I hope you aren't trying to keep calories to 262 x 3, though (maybe a paranoid thought, but it seems quite low for a meal).
