Description
We all love the classic pizza and probably eat more of it than we really need! So here's our creation of a healthier pizza entree.....The Verry Veggie Pizza! The tasty whole grain crust is the foundation of a seasoned black bean-yogurt sauce that is crowned with fresh vegetable and low sodium cheese. Yum!
