Yes, you can enjoy pizza without it sabotaging your diet for the day and, yes, it can even provide a health boost. Whole wheat pizza crust packs more fiber and B vitamins (which help a runner’s body generate energy during workouts) than crust made with refined flour. Smoked ham is a leaner topping choice than bacon but still provides plenty of rich, meaty flavor.
Method :
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet and bake for 6 minutes. Remove and turn the oven to broil.
- Spread the pesto on the crust. Top with the arugula or spinach, ham, red peppers, olives (if using), basil, and goat cheese. Season to taste with black pepper. Broil for 1 minute, or until the toppings are hot.
