Want to enjoy Pizza while trying to lose weight? This is it.
Everyone says that you cannot eat pizza when you are on a diet. In fact, if you do a google search on “the most unhealthy food”, you’ll see pizza placed among other things like pastry, cookies and fries (one other food we can enjoy trying to lose weight, but that’s a different article for a different day!)
To be fair though, when we talk about pizza, this is what we really want:
Huge slices of pastrami, a nice, thick crust and a good serving of cheese to satisfy our eyes as we take a slice of pizza and watch the cheese pull. Ahhh. But if you are willing to reduce some of these ingredients and change the size a little, the 500-kilocalorie slice of pizza can easily become lesser!
Introducing our calorie-reduced pizza:
Smaller crust, better quality meat and vegetables, enough base to cover the whole pizza and a thin crust made of tortilla wrap! The best part? You can have the whole pizza for yourself! All the flavour at a fraction of the calories. Yay!
