What if I told you this delicious, flavourful, spicy, cheezy, crispy-based pizza was only 180 calories, low in fat and 2 of your ‘5 a day’? Well, it is! And it’s one of the best pizzas I’ve had too.
The base is simply a low-fat tortilla wrap (you can buy low-fat shop-bought ones or make your own gluten-free ones).
It’s topped with spicy arrabiata sauce mixed with some nutritional yeast (optional, for a cheesey flavour), a selection of Mediterranean chopped veg and garlic, lightly fried with water or a low-cal olive oil spray and some fresh basil.
This pizza is also really nice served cold, making it the perfect healthy (and ridiculously tasty) lunch to take to work!

Good fun to make with the kids. I used basil but could do with suggestions for other herbs or similar to give extra taste as I found them a little bland. Thanks.
I love making pizza with lebanese flat bread but never thought to try tortillas. Can’t wait to give this a try.
I tried this recipe out tonight and was super impressed!. So flavourful.
It’s great to have pizza without the grease and the guilt :)
Thank you for sharing this!
THanks Lauren, so glad you enjoyed it!
This pizza looks divine, Aimee! Love the idea of using a tortilla for the base!
This pizza looks delicious! I love all the bright colors and veggies in here and the tortilla crust sounds perfect!
Your pizza looks delicious. I make pizza quite often, is a filling and easy to make recipe. Using healthy ingredients makes it a even better option.
Whoa this looks amazing. So creative using a tortilla as a crust! It almost gives it kind of a flatbread vibe. Can’t wait to make it!! :)
*They are*
I’ve been making tortilla pizzas a lot lately! There a new discovery of mine and one that’s proving super useful for lazy, healthy meals.
Mine aren’t as low cal as yours since the only wraps I can find which don’t have a ton of preservatives in are a little heftier. Which do you use?
