WW People - NY PIZZA

I saw this WW article at ww.com and thought you might be interested in it. I always assumed pizza was 13 points ... looks like that isn't true at all!


FOOD FEATURE
Cuisine of the Day: The Pizzeria
By Leslie Fink, MS, RD | 1/3/
A New York slice differs so much from a Chicago one that portion-size estimation is key at the pizzeria. Take note whether your slice is from a 12-, 14-, 16- or 18-inch pie and that a thin crust costs fewer POINTS® values than a deep-dish one.

Slim your pizza down by skipping fatty meat toppings, and boost its nutrition value with a vegetable topping or two.

If you'd rather not spend up to 10 POINTS values on a large plain slice, consider some other options, like a veggie slice without cheese, sprinkled with some grated Parmesan (1 1/2 tablespoons for a POINTS value of just 1). Or a side salad with an ounce or two of mozzarella cheese.


Wise Choices POINTS Values
Pinch oregano, basil or garlic 0
Side salad, without dressing 0
Grated Parmesan cheese, 1 1/2 tbsp 1
Pizza sauce, 1/4 cup 1
Part-skim Mozzarella cheese, 1 oz 2
Cheese pizza, thin crust, slice of 12-inch pie 4
Cheese pizza, thin crust, slice of 14-inch pie 5



Not-So-Wise Choices POINTS Values
Garlic bread, 1 slice 5
Cheese pizza, thin crust, slice of 18-inch pie 8
Cheese pizza, deep dish, slice of 18-inch pie 10
Meat pizza, thin crust, slice of 18-inch pie 10
Meat pizza, deep dish, slice of 18-inch pie 11
