11 Delicious Pizza Recipes That Are Actually Super Healthy

You don't have to wait until Friday night to treat yourself to pizza.

Anyone who knows me knows that I have a borderline unhealthy obsession with pizza. Despite being someone who normally eats like a bird and complains “I’m full” after taking two bites of most foods, I turn into some kind of food-incinerating machine when there’s pizza around. Demolish an entire large pizza to myself is pretty much a weekly occurrence for me. I’m basically like the cookie monster, but with pizza.
There’s only one downside to my fave food: it’s not the healthiest around. Sadly, the combo of refined carbs and saturated fats you get from most takeaway pizzas isn’t exactly waistline-friendly. But just because pizza isn’t usually a health food, that doesn’t mean it can’t be. From cauliflower to quinoa, there are plenty of good-for-you bases out there you can use to make your own delicious pizzas. Here are some of our favourite healthy pizza recipes:
