Introduction

This low-cal pizza recipe gives you the ooey-gooey taste you love -- without the fat.

Ingredients

From FITNESS Magazine

Nonstick cooking spray
1 tablespoon cornmeal
1 10-ounce package refrigerated pizza dough
3 medium plum tomatoes, thinly sliced
4 ounces cooked chicken, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 tablespoons snipped fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1 cup shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese

Directions

1. Coat a 12-inch pizza pan with cooking spray; sprinkle with cornmeal. Press refrigerated dough into pan, building up edges.
2. Arrange tomato slices and chicken on dough. Add basil and pepper, and top with mozzarella.
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.
