Considerations
To keep the calorie and fat content of your pizza order low, opt for thin crust and order a smaller pizza. Choose marinara sauce or pizza sauce rather than the BBQ sauce or garlic Parmesan sauce. Vegetable toppings offer a low-calorie alternative to high-calorie, high-fat toppings such as extra cheese, ham, pepperoni, steak or sausage. Cheeses and meats contain high amounts of saturated fat, and calories from saturated fat should represent less than 10 percent of your daily calorie intake, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
