Crafted for lunch, dinner, or even as a main course at your next gathering, this pizza stands out with its whole wheat Italian thin crust, providing a delightful texture and a healthier base to enjoy.

The savory sauce, made from a blend of 2% reduced-fat milk, flour, and a hint of olive oil, is whisked to perfection and seasoned with grated Asiago cheese and freshly ground black pepper. It's then spread generously over the crust, creating a scrumptious base for the layers of sliced plum tomato and a generous helping of shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese.

Baked to golden perfection in a preheated oven, this pizza promises a crispy crust and melty, gooey cheese that will satisfy your cravings without compromising on your diet. The caloric breakdown leans towards carbs, highlighting the importance of whole grains and the joy of a well-rounded meal.
