Check out this veggie 'twist' on a low-calorie pizza
Stromboli is an Italian-American twist on the the more classic flat bread pizza. It's every bit as delicious as pizza, but offers a slight difference in texture.
The beauty of making it with Lo-Dough is you really don't have to compromise on flavour. We have gone with a low-fat mozzarella here to make it suitable for slimmers, but if following a low-carb diet or just fancy something a little richer, you can enjoy full fat cheese and still expect to slash the calories of a standard pizza. Carbs? Forget about it. This whole veggie pizza contains just 6g.
Ingredients
- 1 piece of
Lo-Dough - 3 thin slices of aubergine, lightly fried in spray oil
- 4 thin slices of courgette, lightly fried in spray oil
- 6 thin slices of portobello mushroom lightly fried in spray oil
- 80g of light fresh mozzarella, sliced as thin as you can and dried on a piece of kitchen roll (mix or swap with grated mozzarella if that's all you have)
- 2 tablespoons of passata
- 1 egg, beaten
- A pinch of oregano
