Yummy Healthy Pizza for ONE!

I didn't feel like cooking on Saturday... busy busy day, but I wanted something tasty - yet quick and easy.  My boyfriend LOVES pizza, so I knew I couldn't go wrong with this!

1 Damascus Bakeries Whole Wheat Roll-Up
1/2oz Turkey Pepperoni Minis
1bsp Onion - chopped
1 small mushroom - chopped
1/4 cup Finely Shredded Mozzarella - part skim 
2tbsp parmesan romano
1/8 cup pizza sauce (I used great value)
dash ground red pepper

Preheat oven to 400.  Line baking sheet with Aluminum Foil.  Spray with nonstick cooking spray.  Place whole wheat roll-up on baking sheet (flat, not rolled up).  Spread pizza sauce evenly on 'crust'.   *Optional - sprinkle a little red pepper on top of sauce to add a little kick.* Sprinkle a little bit of mozzarella on top of pizza sauce.  Add pepperonis, mushrooms, and onion.  Add parmesan romano cheese.  Add remaining mozzarella.  Bake for 8 minutes.  Enjoy!

Eggplant Mini Pizzas!

Ok so maybe this sounds a little weird to some of you -- but it's soo good!  I often make zucchini this way and thought it would work with eggplant too - and it totally does!! 

You can eat this entire recipe for hardly any calories.  Pair this with a salad and it's a great lunch -- OR you could make this as an appetizer for a party -- and I'm willing to bet that kids would LOVE this too!!
1 Eggplant Peeled, and sliced
1/4 cup pizza sauce
1/8 cup part skim shredded mozzarella cheese 
Turkey pepperoni (My eggplant sliced into 14 slices - so I used 14 pieces of pepperoni)
red pepper (to taste)
Slice eggplant.  Place on plate lined with paper towels in single layer (will probably have to use two plates).  Sprinkle a little salt on the eggplant, and top with another paper towel.  Let sit for about 15-20 minutes.  
Preheat oven to 400.  Line baking sheet with aluminum foil - spray foil with non stick cooking spray.  Place eggplant slices in single layer on baking sheet.  I also sprinkled a little Emeril's Original Essence on the eggplant.  Spray tops with a little cooking spray.   Bake for 20-25 minutes.  Remove from oven.  Turn Broiler on.  Top each slice of eggplant with a small amount of pizza sauce, red pepper (if desired), a turkey pepperoni, and a sprinkle of cheese.  Put under the broiler for 2-3 minutes.  Enjoy!!

*Note - you could also make these without pepperoni - top with onions, peppers, mushrooms, etc for an all veggie treat (and of course that'd have even less calories)

Pepperoni Pizza Wontons!

I told you I'd be experimenting more with the wonton wrappers.... this is something I made last week -- so simple, but it turned out so good.  Low cal, and a tasty alternative to high calorie fatty pizza!!

4 wonton wrappers (these can be found in the produce section, near the tofu)
1/8 - 1/4 cup pizza sauce
6 slices turkey pepperoni - chopped
sprinkle part skim mozzarella cheese

Preheat oven to 360.  Lay out wonton wrappers.  Put a dab of pizza sauce in the middle (about 1/4-1/2 spoonful) of each wonton.  Add in 1/4 of the pepperoni into each wonton.  Sprinkle in a tiny bit of cheese.  Slightly wet all sides of each wonton and close them.  Place on foil lined baking sheet - spray wontons & baking sheet with non stick cooking spray.  Bake for 8-10 minutes.  Can top with a little spaghetti sauce and a sprinkle of cheese, if you like, or you could put it all in the wontons.

Makes 1 serving.
