New MyPlate Recipe! Rachel's MyPlate Pizza!

Hi everyone!  I know Kellen had posted a recipe for MyPlate pizza, but I think I've further perfected it.  I don't have a picture to post of it, but it looks like a mini pizza--a real pizza!

Now, last time I went grocery shopping, I found that Mama Rosa's pizza crusts came in individual sizes!  Holy cow!  There are three to a pack, and I chose the whole wheat and honey crusts--my favorite in the large size. 

So you take one crust, and add a quarter cup of pizza sauce (your fruit).  It seems like a whole lot of sauce, but pizza sauce is tasty.  Just spread it out evenly over the crust and you'll be fine.  Then place on a quarter cup of shredded low-fat mozzarella (fat free won't melt).  It doesn't look like much cheese, but when it melts, it's plenty, I promise!  I'm a cheese hound myself, so I was pleasantly surprised. 

Then I added a serving of ham sandwich meat, folding the slices in quarters so the meat was thicker.  It'll probably cover the whole pizza.  Now for your veggie!  I used green bell pepper (yes, I eat a lot of green bell peppers!) and took a good hunk of it and chopped it relatively small to put on top of the pizza. 

Cook for 7.5-10 minutes at 425 degrees, and you have a perfect MyPlate pizza!  (Serves 1.)

That's all for now!
