Skinny Pizza

My trip to Zizzi's was originally going to only be a passing mention...until I discovered this.

Skinny pizza: this is the dream.

Plus, it makes for a great people watching spot in Brighton.

I'm definitely a Zizzi's fangirl after my boyfriend took me there for the first time last year. I absolutely love the menu, so it's definitely my go-to Italian eatery. I also think that for a chain restaurant, it has a lot of character and the food is always great. 

My mama and I decided to pay a visit after starving ourselves silly from all-day shopping. I was prepared to order my regular: Spaghetti Bolognese with tomato and pesto bread to start. A carb-loaded feast of Italian deliciousness. But then I spotted something even better!

Zizzi's skinny pizzas are less than 500cal each! What?! There are three toppings to choose from, but I chose Bufala, which is essentially a cheese and tomato pizza. I'm not very adventurous when it comes to pizza toppings. 

My mama ordered the crab linguine.

While it looked very delicious, I'm afraid to note that it was quite bland and we had to kick it up a bit with some oils and seasoning. 

Nonetheless, my skinny-riffic pizza made up for it! It tasted amazing, baked on wholemeal dough topped with tomato paste, cherry tomatoes and mozzarella. For a small sacrifice of only 500 calories, you can't go wrong really!

Also, I would have taken another picture but it was in my stomach within minutes. Apologies!
