They're Out There...We Just Have To Know Where To Look

I picked up a take n' bake pizza last night from Papa Murphy's.  I eat pizza a couple of times a week.  Sometimes those 200 calorie Digiorno microwave pizzas, sometimes from a restaurant...it varies.

Anyways, tonight was from Papa Murphy's....

I chose a Large Thin Crust Delite Pizza with Chicken, Spinach, Onions, and Cheese. It has a thin cracker type of crust:

  • 1/10th of this Large Pizza is about 180 calories

In contrast, if I had chosen one of the Large Stuffed Pizzas:

  • 1/10th of a Large Pizza is about 365 calories
That's TWICE the calories!  Healthier choices are out there...we just have to know where to look.

PS: I had a good chuckle when I looked on the menu board at the restaurant...a large is supposed to feed 2-3 people.  (OR 10 bandsters!)

YUM!

  2. My current fave pizza (for 180 calories per slice) is the pizza hut thin crust ham and pineapple.

    Yours looks awesome though.

  9. I love pizza. I could eat it every day. My kids could take it or leave it so I always have to convince them that we should have pizza. Even if I go with the stuffed crust 365 calorie piece, I don't feel too bad about since I probably won't even finish one piece.
