I really, really wanted pizza.
I wanted greasy pizza.
But, I'm keeping my goal in mind, and I don't like how I feel after eating greasy pizza - mentally or physically. I'm trying to get back to basics here. If I can't eat in freedom (meaning, if I can't eat it without over-doing it or hating myself for eating it), then I don't eat it. Sometimes I can eat greasy pizza in freedom; sometimes I can't. Right now, as I crawl my way to my goal, I can't. BUT, I can eat a healthier version in freedom.
Here's how I do it...
Kashi Roasted Vegetable Pizza, fixed up. One serving, not fixed, is 1/3rd of the pizza for 6 Weight Watchers Points Plus. It makes a great base for additional toppings.
To this particular pizza, I added 1/2 cup wilted spinach (pop two big handfuls of baby spinach in a bowl and microwave for one minute to wilt), 2/3 cup Weight Watchers Mexican Blend Cheese, and 16 (Margherita) turkey pepperoni slices, a sprinkle of dried oregano, and a dash of red pepper flakes. Pop it in a preheated 425 degree oven for 12 minutes or so, and cut into thirds when it's done. Each third is 8 Weight Watchers Points Plus. I pack the other two servings up and enjoy them for lunch/dinner later in the week.
It's pretty satisfying and hits my craving without guilt!
