What is a good recipe for low fat pizza?!
Answers: Bake a flour tortilla for about 5 minutes on each side to crisp, spread with pizza sauce, top with precooked veggies and a little bit of low fat cheese. Bake for 5-10 minutes.
I agree with the tortilla, but I put a little cheese between 2 tortillas and then spread the sauce, toppings and a little more cheese on top. No need to prebake the tortillas. Just go easy on the cheese and heavy on veggie toppings. I bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit until the edges are brown and the cheese is melted...about 10 minutes.
make pizza dough using 1/2 whole wheat flour. Top with low-fat mozerella... skip the pepperoni, opt for veggies and chicken instead!
for a crust - use Pitas.....
part skim mozz cheese and only veggie toppings
The meat and cheese is what makes a pizza fatty.

You could use lean meat like chicken, and just put on a little cheese, don't over due it.
Peperoni, sausage, bacon, all really bad for you!

Yeast breads do not use fat, so you can eat this without worrying about fat grams. Check the "storebought" crusts to make sure they haven't added oil. You can make pizza crust yourself with little trouble. If you have a bread machine, it is great for this purpose. All you have to do is roll out your dough. The fat in pizza comes from the toppings, so be careful what you use. Any vegetable is low in fat, and so is tomato sauce, so use what you like. Skip the olives.
The meat and cheese are the big problems. You can buy low fat cheese, but finding a low fat meat is more difficult. You can use shrimp...if you like a seafood pizza. You can use ham, which is the lowest of fat of all of the meats. If you use beef or other pork products, watch the fat content, Count them, diivide it by the number of slices you eat to keep yourself under your limit.
