According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the average frozen cheese pizza has 169 calories in each slice; adding some vegetables adds a few calories. However, the Veggie Lover's pizza from Pizza Hut is prepared differently than a standard frozen pizza.
Calories
According to the Pizza Hut website, a slice of medium pizza has 180 calories if you choose a thin crust, 200 calories if you choose a hand-tossed crust and 230 calories if you prefer a pan pizza. If you purchase a large pizza, your calorie range per slice will start with 240 calories for a thin crust and go up to 330 calories for the pan pizza.
Calories from Fat
One advantage that the Veggie Lover's pizza has over its meat-topped opponents is fewer calories from fat. A medium slice has from 60 calories from fat with a thin crust to 80 calories from fat with a pan pizza. A large Veggie Lover's pizza has from 80 to 130 calories from fat with the same respective crusts.
Calories from Carbohydrates
According to MedlinePlus, each gram of carbohydrates has 4 calories. A medium slice of Veggie Lover's thin crust pizza has 23 g of carbs for 92 calories from carbohydrates. At the other end of the spectrum, a large slice of Veggie Lover's pan pizza has 38 g of carbohydrates for 152 calories from carbs.
