Pizza is a wonderful creation! It can contain all of the elements that make up a complete meal; complex carbohydrates, lean proteins, vegetables and a little fat. Did you ever think that eating pizza would be ‘allowed’ whilst you were gaining better health and losing weight?! (Now you know why I’m such a huge fan of Clean Eating!).
The trick is all in the portion size. When you make your own pizza you have control over everything, the type of base you use, the amount of cheese you put on, the variety of vegetables and the quality of protein. For this pizza I have used a wholewheat flat bread which comes out super thin and crispy. I only used 1/2 oz of cheese, loaded it with protein packed Clean Eating Refried Beans and topped with my favourite Mexican vegetables.
– Although I have to say, I wasn’t a huge fan of the hot avocado, I’d probably put that on after its done in the oven next time!
