Dinner was 2 slices of Gluten Free Pizza with a tasty Greek Salad

I cheated tonight and used a Frozen pizza from Udi's - its my go too when I do not have time or energy to make dough from scratch and I am on my own for dinner so did not feel like going to too much work just for myself. I like the Margherita Pizza as my base and than I add some chicken and additional veggies to it and top with some goat cheese! Once upon a time I would eat the entire pizza but now I have 2 slices with a salad on the side and than save the remainder for lunch another day.

 

Udi Margherita Pizza

 Perfectly Balance your Pizza with a Greek Salad

What You Need for 1 serving

•  2-3 cups of leafy greens
• 1/4 cup diced onion
• 1/4 cup sweet peppers
• 5 cherry tomatoes
• 2 tbsp Epicure Greek Dressing
• 15 ml of goat cheese

What You Do

•  Toss veggies and dressing in bowl and than plate on one side of your plate. Sprinkle with goat cheese.

I also had a scoop of Ice-cream for dessert with some raspberry puree - forgot to take a photo of that but self explanatory. I use my kitchen scale to weigh my ice-cream because a 'scoop' is not very uniform measurement and I know from past experience I have a tendency to do some pretty big 'scoops'!

 

Saturdays move more challenge started first thing in the morning to get it done before I got busy and forgot by getting busy with my Saturday morning workout of house cleaning and grocery shopping plus an afternoon walk!

 

Have an amazing day
