WW Recipe of the Day: Low-Carb Tortilla Pizza for One
Pizza is one of my favorite foods. I am picky about the crust though. I like it thin and crispy, not thick and doughy.
There are tons of frozen pizza options on the market today, and some are quite tasty. But most are still extremely high in fat and calories. And when you bake or order a whole pizza, who can really just eat one piece.
The next time you crave pizza, remove the high-calorie temptation and try this mouthwatering pizza for one.

This recipe really hits the mark. It's quick and easy. Very thin and crispy. Full of great flavors. And the best part—is it's low in carbs.

Recipe Notes
Ole Xtreme Wellness Spinach and Herb Tortillas
- Some high-fiber tortillas may not crisp well. I like Ole and Mission brands. Flipping the tortilla before topping it also helps to keep it crispy.
- Not a fan of tomato sauce, skip it for a white pizza (without sauce).
- No fresh tomatoes, use diced canned tomatoes. Just drain and pat dry before using.
- Brush the tortilla with a little olive oil and garlic powder instead of using tomato sauce, or try a little pesto.
- Add some chicken or chicken sausage to you pizza topping for additional protein.
- Bulk up your pizza with fresh arugula for your salad and pizza in one.
- Add fresh spinach, mushrooms and/or peppers.
- Top with ham and pineapple.
- No mozzarella, substitute any low-fat cheese you like.

I use Ole Wraps for pizza all the time! I use roasted garlic flavor tomatoes or pasta sauce, fresh onions, peperoncini peppers, cheese, Turkey pepperoni & Turkey sausage crumbles for a variety. Lowfat shredded mozzarella cheese. More than 4 points, but very satisfying & filling!
