Pizza Pie

I crave pizza a lot. Probably because the boys are always eating it or craving it. Maybe it's because I ate it for the first 38 something years of my life. Whatever the reason, sometimes you just crave bad stuff. So that got me thinking I need to try to make Pizza healthy. Is that even possible? So I was sad when this pie disappeared from the counter.  Seriously. It’s probably one of the best recipes I’ve ever made. Or tasted.
