Pizza can be healthier when you make it at home. Here's an easy & gourmet recipe for roasted acorn squash and mushrooms with fresh mozzarella and goat cheese!







Sometimes you just crave heavier foods, like pizza, and that's OK. 
What's important is that you recognize that these foods are high calorie & to limit them when dieting.



Even the heavy foods can be made less calories in simple ways 💜

Making your own pizza at home is usually healthier than ordering one from outside.

Its easy too!

As an example, a slice of HAND-tossed Domino's pizza with mushrooms will be roughly 190 calories versus my pizza above which is around 100 calories per slice.


My friends love my pizzas, so I wanted to share this with all of you! 


Here's a gourmet recipe for mushroom pizza with fresh mozzarella and goat cheese. So yummy!
The entire pizza was roughly 1300 calories, and I cut it up into 12 slices so each slice was 110 calories.

Steps:
-Preheat oven to 350
-Take a pizza crust (fresh or ready made)
-Dice up 6 cloves of garlic
-Slice up 1/2 a vidalia onion
-In a warm pan, sautee the onions in some olive oil until golden brown and add in the garlic
-Add in 1 cup of chopped mushrooms
-Add in 1 cup of chopped spinach
-Add in 1 cup of roasted acorn squash
-Add in 1 teaspoon rosemary
-Add in 1 teaspoon thyme
-Add in 1 teaspoon oregano
-Cook until mushrooms are soft
-Add salt and pepper to taste
-Brush on some olive oil onto pizza crust
-Cut up fresh mozzarella and cover the entire pizza crust with cheese
-Spoon on the mushroom and garlic mixture
-Spoon on some fresh goat cheese in between
-Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes and you are done!

Bon appetit!
