Healthy Pizza?!

The short story: no. There is no such thing as a healthy pizza that tastes like pizza.

The long story: I have been craving pizza for weeks now. I always put it off, saying "I'll get it this weekend" (I live across from a pizzeria for crying out loud) but I always end up leaning on my clean eating habits and just skipping it. So, I fired up Google and found a clean eating pizza crust recipe.

I have been eating clean (read: real) foods for about a year now. It makes me feel so much better than eating all of the processed foods I used to. I have so much more energy and I rarely feel bloated and sluggish. (That's not to say I don't cheat. Because I do--cough--margaritas, tacos, pasta, wine..). I just prefer to not indulge often, so when I'm craving something, I'll search for a clean recipe first.

I used this recipe the first time, and this one the second, but it just didn't work for me. I mean, it worked. But it's not pizza.

I can't get it crispy, I can't get it to taste good. It tasted like a thin omelette with sauce and cheese. I tried this, I really did but I couldn't. It's okay, maybe, but I'd much rather splurge on the real thing and really enjoy it rather than suffering through something less than.
