Tortilla
Tortillas are a great way to make a healthy and low-calorie pizza. They are much thinner than traditional pizza dough which means they cook faster and have fewer calories. I am using Carb Balance Tortillas in this recipe to lower the calories even more. You also don’t have to mess around with making pizza dough so its a great hack for a quick meal. Plus, you can easily add your favorite toppings without overloading on cheese and sauce.
Toppings
For the toppings, I like to use a variety of vegetables. On this particular pizza, I used turkey pepperoni and pepperoncini with fat-free mozzarella and store=bought pizza sauce. You can use any type of meat or vegetable that you like or have on hand.
