Homemade Pizza (protein packed!)
Having a craving for some ‘za?
The average slice of a medium pizza from your go-to pizza delivery spot is about 210 calories with 10 grams of protein, 25 grams of carbohydrates and 8 grams of fat. That’s just for one slice.
Now, imagine making your own pizza at home, being in full control of the ingredients you’re consuming and being able to eat the entire pizza for under 500 calories!
Here is MTMM’s favourite rendition of homemade ‘za.
