It has been raining for 4 days straight:( Totally not motivating me to do much...
Yesterday I had a great workout at the gym. I did about 4 miles on the treadmill incorporating lots of intervals and inclines. Afterwards I did some crunches and 3 sets of squats. By the time I got home, I was starving!! All this rain definitely makes me crave comfort food and one thing came to mind: PIZZZA! Not wanting to ruin the great workout I just had, I decided to experiment by making a healthier version. In less than 10 minutes I was sitting down to a delicious lunch! It really was a piece of cake...er...pizza (;
Pizzzza Cake
Set Oven to broil on high
Lightly spray a baking sheet (I used my cast iron skillet) and lay down tortilla
Spread sauce over tortilla then cover with spinach/arugula
Sprinkle the rest of the toppings except tomatoes; put the cheese on last.
Place pan on the top rack of the oven for 5- mins or until outside of tortilla is browned and cheese in melted.
Once out of the oven, lay sliced tomatoes on top
Enjoy!!!
This was such a great lunch and waaaay lower in calories than traditional pizza. I loaded it with sauce and spinach and went easy on the cheese and it still satisfied my pizza craving. The tortilla came out crispy and grilled so it was exactly like eating a thin crust pizza. Also, it only took a couple minutes to throw together and broil in the oven. A perfect post-workout lunch :D
