Veggie Pizza Nutrition Information

So, is veggie pie a healthy pie as well?

If you are counting calories or simply trying to pick up a healthier alternative you can make a few smart swaps that work best for you.

A slice of a classic meat-and-cheese-pie can have somewhere around 300 calories but ditching (or halving) the cheese and opting for more bite-size vegetables on top can lower this number to 250 or less.

Swaps like whole wheat crust instead of white crust, and adding extra veggies can decrease calories, fats, carbs, and cholesterol while at the same time increase the fiber and protein count. Add the vitamins and minerals to it and you have a healthy AND delicious meal!

The Best Veggie Pizza Toppings

What veggies are good on pizza?

It’s a no brainer since you can customize your pie by preferences. You can include cherry tomatoes, red and green peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, roasted eggplant, scallions, celery, radish, green onions, and so on.

The veggies that go on your pizza can be both fresh or frozen but it’s always better to choose some fresh, seasonal veggies full of flavor and aroma. Don’t hesitate to try something bolder like kale or spinach, squash, artichokes, or truffles maybe?

*Bonus tip: if you want to lower calories by cutting cheese, but still want the cheesy taste of pizza, add some parmesan flakes on top for a satisfying melty twist.

What about Cold Veggie Pizza?

The best thing about pizza is that it is perfectly tasty both hot and cold, right?

That is even more accentuated with cold veggie pies. Overlaying the baked crust with sauce or cream cheese and finally with some fresh or baked veggies on top makes a great cold appetizer loved both by children and adults.
