While I do love my cheese, pizza without it is surprising good! I have subbed stronger cheeses (gorgonzola, feta) in small amounts when I make pizza at home. I'm big on veggie pizzas, so I'll try just about anything. My favorite is a Mediterranean style pizza with artichoke, olives, tomatoes, and feta. Spinach is great too. I love garlic, and I think making the pizza tastier helps keep me from missing some of those fatty ingredients. ...http://www.traineo.com/10_4565_0.htmlWed, 09 Jan 2008 18:18:53 +0000http://www.traineo.com/10_4565_0.htmlI would use a 2% cheese, or fresh mozz, but more sparingly.

I've started gathering ideas on how to make my own healthy pizza. Thus far I've considered using a wheat crust (which is amazingly yummy) and leaving meats out of the equation for toppings (unless someone can find a semi-healthy meat topping.) The big question is what kind of cheese or cheese re...http://www.traineo.com/10_4565_0.htmlWed, 09 Jan 2008 17:59:03 +0000
