What's for dinner?

Pizza!
I think this is our favorite meal.
Serves 2 with awesome leftovers or 3-4

The great thing about pizzas is that there is no recipe. Do what you like!


Preheat the oven to a super hot 450-500 degrees. If you don't have a pizza stone to preheat with the oven, put your baking pans in while you make your pizzas.

Start out with some flat bread wraps -- these are great, they can minimize your carbs & you can find them in whole grain & other great options. We used 4 total flat breads.
Slather on some tomato sauce. you can used a premade sauce or stir in garlic & onion powder, salt, oregano & basil into about a 1/2 can of crushed tomatoes. Top with a few spoonfuls of browned turkey, beef, chicken, or sausage of your choice. 
Add your chopped veggies, we always use peppers & onions. You can use anything you like: olives, banana peppers, mushrooms, artichokes, spinach, asparagus. 
Top with a little "glue" or mozzarella. It will get all melty & delicious & help to hold together your pizza. 
There's no way I would forget the pepperonis! We use turkey 'ronis to help cut down on the calories.
Finally, top with a good sprinkle of parmesan. 
Bake for about 10-12 minutes until nicely browned & bubbly. Let the pizza stand for a few minutes before cutting.
Enjoy your delicious pizza!
