3 tablespoons snipped fresh basil

3. Bake in a 425-degree F. oven for 13 to 18 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly.
Healthy Cooking Tips
Shake the Salt: Subbing tomatoes for store-bought sauce reduces sodium and belly bloat. Plus, packing your pie with produce ups the filling factor.
Choose Chicken: Swap out greasy pepperoni for grilled chicken.
Make the Cut: To chop basil, stack the leaves in a neat pile and roll lengthwise, like a cigar. Use shears to slice across the bundle.
Say Cheese: Low-fat cheese melts better than fat-free. Before baking the pie, mist with cooking spray.
Serving Size: makes 4 servings
