The average American eats 46 slices of pizza a year! Whether that is you or not, here are some simple ways to cut calories when you are ordering pizza.
- Order thin crust (this could save up to 800 calories per pizza- that is the difference at Uno's)
- Ask for 1/2 the cheese (or be adventures and get no cheese at all, you may be pleasantly surprised)
- Order vegetables instead of meat toppings (broccoli, peepers, garlic, or mushrooms are popular)
- Split the pizza (having trouble deciding which topping to share with others? Get a half and half pizza instead of 2. This way you won't be tempted by extra slices or leftovers)
- Get whole wheat crust when available (this may not immediately save calories, but it will increase fiber)
**Bonus, save some calories when eating pizza:
- Put pizza down in-between bites.
- Get a side salad to replace your 2nd slice
