prosciutto

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: ham

Turkey bacon is lower in fat, while ham is more affordable.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: cheddar cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces calories, while cheddar is often cheaper.

balsamic glaze

🥗Healthier: balsamic vinegar

💰Cheaper: red wine vinegar

Balsamic vinegar is lighter, and red wine vinegar is less expensive.

Make the dough using 1 cup of self-rising flour and 1 cup of nonfat Greek yogurt, adding a little salt and garlic.

Knead and roll out the dough on a large silicone mat.

Transfer the rolled dough to a cookie sheet using a rolling pin.

Pre-bake the crust in a 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes, checking after that time.

Add an additional 3 minutes cooking time to crisp up the crust.

Measure out 4 ounces (1/2 cup) of fat-free mozzarella and 3/4 ounce of prosciutto.

Brush 2 tablespoons of balsamic and fig dressing on the crust before adding toppings.

Spread the fat-free mozzarella on one half of the pizza and reduced fat mozzarella on the other half.

Add prosciutto on top of the cheese, distinguishing between the two halves.

Return the pizza to the oven until the cheese melts.

Once melted, remove the pizza from the oven and add arugula on top.

Finish off with additional balsamic dressing on the husband's side before plating.
