A healthier (less sat. Fat) cheese for homemade pizza? (mushrooms, frozen, dressing)

Part-skim Mozzarella and Feta are all natural with no additives and each has about 70 calories an ounce. You'll get much more flavor out of a little bit of Feta but the Mozzarella is a good bit more "melty".

I've read that the "light" versions of cheddar and other cheeses are basically full of other bad for you crap. Any less fatty substitute cheeses anyone can think of?

I usually make Canadian bacon with cherry tomatoes and cut up red bell pepper.

Have you given thought to cheeseless pizza? I would not only use tomato sauce but slice large tomatoes thinly to put on top. Lots of other stuff like green peppers red peppers yellow peppers and Canadian bacon.

I load it to the gills with cherry or grape tomatoes. Some halved, some whole.

Fat is healthier then the carbs/sugar in the dough. And unless you are eating pizza 3 times/day I wouldn't lose too much sleep over anything

Seriously - it would be like sushi without rice, an omelet without eggs.

When I make pizza or lasagna I go ahead and use the good stuff. I mean, we're not eating it every day, or even every week.

You can always make your own mozzarella from skim milk.

Sashimi has no rice. Sushi is vinegared rice.

I load my pizza up with cheese. However, my crust has zero wheat flour. I use almond flour mixed with more cheese for a crust (Fathead pizza).
