Margherita Pizza

150 Calories per Slice

Great pizza! It has the same calorie issue as the White Bean Pizza though- the slices are kind of small so you want more than 2- which starts to add up if you're counting calories. However, if you're not really concerned about the calorie count- then this pizza is awesome! (And even if you are- if you eat 3 or 4 pieces, it's not that bad). I heated up a little maranara sauce for the hubs to dip his pizza in because he likes to do that with Margherita pizza. 

prep time:25 min

2	large roma (plum) tomatoes, thinly sliced
2	tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh basil leaves
3/4	cup finely shredded, reduced-fat Italian cheese blend (3 oz)
