I had a great need for a pizza today. Okay, maybe not a need, but definitely a hankering. I didn't want to sabotage all that I had done all week, and my groceries were limited - as tomorrow is our shopping day. I also couldn't literally afford a pizza. Hmm... What to do?
Pita Pizza. That's it. I put whole wheat pitas on a cookie sheet, spooned a couple of tablespoons of heart healthy tomato sauce with portobello mushrooms on top, and capped it off with a couple of tablespoons of cheese. On my man's, because he is such a meat-eater, I sauteed some onions, chopped ham lunch meat (70 calories), and two chopped brats. I topped his with cheese as well. He LOVED it. Although, I would use pineapple next time instead of the brats, and that would make a Hawaiian pizza! It would also save a lot of fat and calories.
Anyway, I loved my little cheese pizza, and with a salad, it was plenty. I'll have to look up how many calories I saved... BTW, I cooked it on 400 degrees for 8 minutes. It could have used 10. :)
