Super Easy Personal Pizzas

I made the best accidental discovery last night.  I had a package of Trader Joe’s frozen Indian Flatbread in my freezer (or Naan bread).  At 180 calories, 2 grams of fat and 3 grams of fiber, I decided to warm a piece up in the oven (I was craving bread, man. What can I say?)

I heated the oven to 400 degrees for 10 minutes (per the package instructions), then I laid a couple pieces (some for the boyfriend, too!) on the pizza sheet and spritzed them with a little I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter Spray. I sprinkled a little garlic powder on top — just a little!  I toasted it for 3 minutes in the oven, flipping them over half-way through.

When I realized that I needed to make a meal out of it, not just a piece o’ bread, I dug around in the fridge to see what I could serve with it.  DING DING DING!  I had some 2% skim mozzarella and a little marinara, so I added a couple tablespoons of sauce to the top of the flatbread and 1/3 cup of cheese to the top of each.  I sprinkled it with a little italian seasoning and a shake of crushed red pepper and threw it back in the oven for another 3-4 minutes.

Booya. Instant pizza and for only.... *drumroll* FIVE POINTS.  Five! That’s it.  3 for the flatbread, 2 for the cheese. You can count the sauce if you want, but it’s only like 0 to half a point, so I didn’t sweat it. If I ate more than that, then I would, but sometimes, you just have let some stuff slide.

Now this was just your basic cheese pizza, but you could easily add some turkey pepperoni (I love Hormel’s lowfat variety) or load it up with “free” veggies.  It came out perfect. Even my boyfriend loved it.  Woo!
