HOMEMADE VEGGIE PIZZA FOR TWO TREAT DAY RECIPE
The two of us love cooking for ourselves and each other. We create memories, we create delicious meals and we get to put our own energy into the food we make and eat. We favor eating small portions of healthy snacks throughout the day (that require little to no preparation), but once a week we celebrate a treat day and enjoy ingredients, like cheese. Eating desserts, dairy, meat, fried food and processed sugars in moderation allows us to keep a healthy weight, maintain a healthy diet and still enjoy the things we love to eat, like pizza. Enjoy our Homemade Veggie Pizza For Two recipe below!
