Something my husband and I "invented" this weekend.
He was really wanting some pizza so I decided to try to find a good substitute with what we had around the house.

2 slices high fiber multigrain bread - we use SaraLee
1 slice Kraft 2% American Cheese slice
5 pieces lowfat turkey pepperoni (can't remember the brand)
1 couple squirts of pizza sauce (we buy a low cal 0 fat one that comes in a squeeze bottle.

put a little sauce on one side of eat slice of bread
add slice of cheese
add pepperoni
add other piece of bread
Cook like you would a grilled cheese. (don't butter the bread though)
on medium heat so the cheese melts and the bread gets toasty but doesn't burn.

It's not pizza, but has a lot of the flavor of pizza and satified the pizza craving

Mmmmm pizza,

That sounds soooo good. I am constantly looking for pizza alternatives. Do you ever toss veggies on there or ground turkey?

That does sound great. I also like the Weight Watchers Smart Ones Pizza.

No that was just something we invented over the weekend so we haven't experimented with it yet. i am thinking onion, veggie crumbles and mushrooms for the next one

This does sound great. I got one of the south beach pizzas, but it's tiny and at 350 cal my guy and I were thinking we would split it and add a salad. I like your recipie way better though. Great creativity!

I think there is a recipe in the Biggest Loser Book for pizza using a pita as the crust. I think it was under one of contestants tips, not sure though, I got the book from the library so i'll have to check it out again.
