This pizza was awesome. If you make it according to the book it's only 4pps per serving. If you use full-fat cheese and ignore the instructions on the amounts of ingredients to use, you are looking at about 5 or 6 pps per serving. Remember I'm the girl that likes quantity, so I was able to cut mine into 8 slices/servings! I got a little over zealous with the goat cheese and tripled the quantity suggested. My family wasn't overly impressed with that. And for the record I paid for my over zealousness later!
The 5 ingredients: Spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, prebaked thin whole wheat pizza crust, LF Italian cheese blend, and LF goat cheese.
The Final Dish:
I live in a house full of carnivorous, heathen men. If I would have put that pizza on the table without some sort of meat, they would have revolted. If you live like me, then toss on a couple pieces of sliced chicken breast to keep the menfolk happy. I got a little chef-y last night when preparing this. I sauteed my spinach (instead of microwaving with water per the instructions) with fresh garlic in PAM until wilted and soft. I also sprinkled some garlic (dried) on the crust itself. YOU MUST DO THAT!!! I give you that tip for free, people! Garlic is a must.
So, let me explain my goat cheese mishap... I calculated the points in the container, and it was low. So I assumed the whole thing needed to go on top and would melt like mozzarrella... um, no. That didn't happen, so just put the proper amount for happy-tummy's sake, ok?
Anyway, this may not be the best dish for a bunch of boys, although my hubby claimed to like it. I plan to make this for my next girls night to serve with lots of wine. The ladies will be happily full and drunk before 10pm!
That's how I roll.
