The traditional Italian favorite without all the hassle or calories.
One of the first meals my roommate made us in college - simple and delicious, it quickly became a staple!
I like Healthy Choice Fresh Mixers a lot but as a vegetarian, the choices are limited and low on protein and at $3/each, they weren't exactly budget friendly especially if I had to add my own protein. SO I made my own -- and it was delicious so I am giving you all the recipe. Authors Note: This is not a low sodium food. Fresh tomatoes could really bring down the salt content but I was throwing it together before work.
I used low sodium chicken broth because it was all I had it on hand and I'm not a vegetarian, but for vegetarians substitute veggie broth and you're good to go! If you make sure the broth is gluten free I believe it's gluten free as well tho I'm not an expert so make sure you check
I found this recipe in "Real Simple" magazine and wanted to see what the values are.

The pita crust and the sauce are both homemade! This means that there's a good chance you'll have most of the ingredients in your house for whenever you want pizza! Is it as good as delivery?

If Olive Garden doesn't have a dish like this, they should! This is an easy, one skillet dinner featuring healthy Italian Turkey Sausage, kale, caramelized onions, black olives and pasta! Comfort food for your diet!
This saucy chicken is in a dry-flour roux. No added fat! Also, unsweetened almond milk is used to cut fat and calories, and make this dish lactose free!

The half-cup serving size and very small amount of calories make it easy to chose one or two servings for lunch or dinner!!
An absolutely wonderful, flavorful, cheesy fish dish! I would make this every week and never get tired of it!!
