Pizza on the lighter side...
After being in Italy for almost 3 weeks... I ALWAYS wanted pizza!!! But, after gaining 8 lbs on the trip, I needed a healthier option to fill my "pizza void". It was... back to reality!
I found this low card, extremely healthy alternative to our Italian Pizza ! Eggplant pizza!
Now, before you knock it... TRY IT! It's actually delicious , and even my husband approves!
Needed:
medium to large eggplant (enough food for two)
mozzarella cheese
marinara sauce
dried basil
olive oil
toppings of your choice ( I like mushrooms and spinach)
To bake:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Slice eggplant into circles, about an inch thick each
Top with olive oil and basil ( garlic if you'd like)
Bake for 15-20 minutes
Take out and put sauce, cheese and toppings on
Place back in oven and bake for 10 more minutes or until toppings are cooked and cheese is melted
Enjoy!
Eggplant Pizza!
