The Healthiest Pizza (ever).

This is my pizza creation! I love the taste more than the usual fast food alternative and even some wood-fire oven pizzas. They have about 350-400 calories depending on how cheese heavy you want to go.

This is an Australian Recipe so whilst I won't be able to give you the exact bread you'll know what to look for.
For Australians all these ingredients are from Coles (Fairly large one not express!)

^ Small - Medium base not a large one^
1 Loaf - Toufayan Bakeries - Low-Carb/Low-Fat OR Wheat Pita Bread (150 Calories)
40 grams - Perfect Italiano - Pizza Plus Cheese (140 Calories)
10 grams - Don - Shaved Lite Leg Ham (26 Calories)
Tomato Pizza Sauce - 1/5 cup (30 Calories)
AND ALL THE VEGETABLES! (But seriously, add what you want, I only usually throw on some Capsican and Pineapple but my partner adds mushroom and onion)
TOTAL CALORIES (not including the greens): 346 Calories



STEPS!
-Pre heat oven to about 180 - 200 degrees Celsius-
1- Drain any tinned vegetables or pineapple and remove from tin on to paper towel.
2- Tomato Pizza Sauce base goes on first
3- Add the ham and any untinned vegetables.
4- Add Cheese
5- Top with the tinned toppings
6- Place in the oven for about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and golden.

    I make these but use chopped fresh tomatoe with dry oregano, onion, and garlic spread over pita. Put cheese on and extra lean ham. YUMMMMY!

    I do the same, but I substitue Josephs Lavash bread. I can find it at Wal-Mart. I roll mine like a huge pizza wrap and nibble it up. The entire wrap (plain) is 100 calories, 4g fat, 14g carbs and 10g protein so it's good for other things too

    I've made variations on this for years. They're awesome for making individual pizza, and I agree, I like them better.

    Some things to try: (Start with thte whole wheat pita bread)

    In the U.S. those spinach dip recipes - add some with chopped tomato, broil or bake

    Chicken (precooked) and garlic and olive oil with feta cheese, tomato, red sweet pepper,and zucchini - no sauce for this one, just olive oil and garlic - broil or bake

    Any combo of sauteed veggies with the pizza sauce on the bottom, then veggies, then cheese.

    You can go crazy with these, fast and simple!

    That's neat. I've been making the same recipe for months actually. Mine come to 312 so its cool to see the exact same thing being used by someone else. :)

    I've made a white pizza this way too. Normally I use sauce, peppers, turkey pepp and spinach with garlic and basil.

    A good low calorie flatbread would work really good for this also. Hungry Girl promotes one that is 90 or 100 calories.

    We do this but use toasted whole wheat tortillas, (the soft taco size) we toast them so they won't be soggy. It's so yummy and everyone can have the toppings they want and like.

    Thanks! I'll have to try this, too. I think I'll try to do chicken pesto pizzas this way.
