This tasty 3 cheese garden vegetable pizza with whole wheat crust is a great example of how easy it is to make pizza that is healthy and delicious.
It’s made with whole wheat pizza dough, reduced fat cheese and loaded with lots of fresh vegetables. I used red bell peppers, onions, fresh roma tomatoes and mushrooms, but most any combination of fresh vegetables will work.
Other great healthy vegetable topping choices include thinly sliced zucchini, fresh roughly chopped spinach, quartered artichoke hearts, roasted bell peppers and fresh corn. (One of the most delicious pizzas I ever had was topped with a combination of fresh tomatoes, fresh corn and basil.)

Pre-baking the pizza crust will help keep it from getting soggy when topped with vegetables that have a high water content.
Sprinkling some of the cheese on the crust before topping the pizza provides a barrier between the crust and the moist toppings.
