Italian food is just so good! And luckily there are healthy ways to indulge!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. 
    
   Thin crust, loaded with veggies...who says

   FOR PIZZA, OPT FOR THIN CRUST AND EXTRA VEGGIES
   
   You get the same flavor of the toppings with some calories saved on the crust.

2. 
    

   PLAIN ROLLS OR BREADSTICKS
   
   One of the best parts of an Italian meal is the bread. Bread isn't instantly a no-no if you stear clear of the butter basted garlic bread.

   ANTIPASTO WITH VEGETABLES
   
   Order this hors d’oeuvre in place of antipasto with meat - still delicious!

4.

   PASTA WITH TOMATO SAUCE AND VEGGIES
