MORE Veggies Weekend Pizza
One of my favorite pizza crust brands is Wood Grilled pizza crust. They make a thin, whole wheat pizza crust that is ~ chef’s kiss~. You can typically find this crust at Whole Foods or order online (it's worth it).
If I am in the mood for pizza, I like to balance it with adding MORE veggies. This makes me feel satisfied and gut happy afterwards - so I get to enjoy my craving and still reach my health goals. Feel free to spruce this recipe up with any and all the veggies you like. Such as adding grilled zucchini and yellow squash or tomatoes.
