Guilt-Free Taco Pizza: What's For Lunch

By request, my lunch from the other day:



Guilt-Free Taco Pizza
120 calories/piece
Makes 16 pieces

Ingredients:

  • 1 pkg. Betty Crocker pizza crust mix (use whatever you like but calorie count may differ)
  • 1 can refried beans (if you use fat-free beans the calorie count will be lower)
  • 1 cup salsa (calories based on Pace, but I used my mama's homemade salsa)
  • 1 Tbsp. taco seasoning
  • 4 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 oz. shredded cheddar cheese
  • Lettuce, shredded
  • Tomato, diced
  • Salt & pepper (optional)
Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease an 11x15" baking sheet. Prepare crust according to package instructions. Spread on baking sheet and stab all over with a fork to release air pockets. (Crust will be very thin.) Bake for 5-10 minutes until crust is starting to brown a little. Mix taco seasoning into beans and spread on crust. Spread salsa on beans, then sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar evenly over the top. Bake at 425°F for 10-15 minutes or until edges of cheese start to brown. Cut into 16 pieces (4x4). Top each piece with lettuce, diced tomatoes, and salt & pepper to taste.

A general serving size is about 3 pieces, so a 360 calorie lunch isn't bad!

Enjoy!
