Skinny Chicken Fajita Pizza...and don't forget your $1.00 off coupon from Mama Mary's!

Did you know that Mexican food AND pizza can be healthy? Yup! Depending on how you cook it and the ingredients you use, both of these foods can be delicious and good for you! Mama Mary's puts out a couple of thin pizza crusts, along with a whole wheat version, that gives you the option of saving a few calories or carbs. I used salsa for a sauce, skim milk mozzarella cheese and after I sauted the veggies and cooked the chicken, we had a very healthy pizza with a Mexican food flair! After all the heavy foods that were in abundance over the holidays, it's nice to have something filling but satisfying. Try it...I'm pretty sure you'll feel the same way!
