Its a well known fact that Pizza isn't the lowest calorie option out there, and its more than fine to indulge in your favorite Pizza take out from time to time. But when it comes to everyday, you should still be eating the food you love, without the guilt and health impact of the takeaway variety. The key to maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle is developing healthy habits. I have a post on how to create a healthy habit tracker here-if that is something that is of interest to you.

#HappyHealthyMe. Every Monday I will be uploading a healthy version of your favorite takeaway meal, comment below and let me know which you would like to see me make next. 

Today I was requested by @subtlejamie on twitter to make a healthy version of Pizza so that is what I have done! If you do try this then share a picture with me on any of the following
