Healthy Pizza

Sick of wasting excess food? Here's an idea for how to cut back on the amount of food you throw away each week: Try throwing your leftovers onto a pizza. You can add almost any topping to a pizza, like your leftover vegetables. It's a healthy way to use leftover vegetables and it adds more nutrients. Anything can go atop of a pizza. Judith Gordon, Founder of "Nutritiously Delicious," even enjoys throwing leftover pinto beans on the pizza. Adding lots of vegetables instead of meat to a homemade pizza (or any pizza for that matter) can help make a favorite food, a healthy food. Cooking a pizza at home also allows you add a perfectly portioned amount of low-fat cheese and allows you to avoid the grease you experience at the local pizza place, plus you can use whole wheat dough.
