Light Southwest Breakfast Pizza

Here’s a great way to start the day.  A breakfast pizza full of flavor that is still light and healthy enough for those watching what they eat.  A whole wheat crust is used along with egg substitute, increasing the overall nutrition and lowering the calories and fat.   Salsa and diced bell peppers give it an extra flavor kick.  This should leave you full for quite awhile to keep hunger at bay as you go through your day.
