5 steps and 20 minutes to Italian inspired low fat, low calorie pizza

If you know anything about Queen, you know that I love love love Italian food! All to often that means fattening sauces, gravies, pasta, meat etc...
This dish goes to show you that you can have great food and stay within your eating plan! Feel free to leave comments below!

Ingredients:

Thin Crust Pizza Dough (in the refrigerated section)
1 medium Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast (cage free and vegetarian fed)
1/4 cup Tomato trinity (tomato, onion and bell pepper)
Spinach and/or Arugula to taste
1/4 cup Bottled Pizza Sauce (should be no more than 40 cal per serving)
1/4 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
1/4 cup of Broccoli Florets
1/4 cup Mushrooms

Use as much or as little of the veggies as you desire! They are low calories and super filling!

(No canned or frozen veggies!)





1. Cut chicken into small pieces. Saute until brown, but do not over cook. Set aside.



2. Unroll pizza dough onto greased pan. Bake on 400 degrees for exactly 5 minutes. Remove from oven.
3. Spread 1/4 cup sauce over the crust and add your cooked chicken.



4. Began building your pizza as desired with veggies and cheese.
Personally I build as follows: sauce, chicken, broccoli, mushrooms, tomato trinity, cheese, and top with spinach and arugula.



5. Bake for 10 minutes or until crust is brown on edges and cheese is bubbly!





Caution: Pizza is very very hot!

Be careful, you may fall in love with this healthy dish! 2 small squares the size of a deck of cards is a serving. 320 cal per serving
