Easy High-Protein Pizza Meal Idea


Let’s have pizza .. but let’s make it high protein!

Looking for a way to curb thought cravings and incorporate pizza into your meal plan? Look no further!

Ingredients:

  • 2 Mission Carb Balance Tortillas

  • Light serving of Pizza Sauce or Marinara choice

  • 24 slices of Turkey Pepperoni

    • Please note that regular pepperoni will not make it “high protein.”

  • 49g of cheese of your choice.

    • Check the label for proper serving. I used a pizza blend.

  • Extra Topping choices

    • We used spinach, added garlic powder, minced onion, and added red pepper.

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°

  2. Use your mission carb balance tortillas as the base.

  3. Spread sauce of choice

  4. Measure your cheese and divide it in half (to ensure you’re getting the measurement for your intake).

  5. Add your turkey pepperoni

  6. Add your extra toppings

  7. Place on a cookie sheet to help create the “crunch.”

  8. Bake for 15-17 minutes

  9. Enjoy!
