{My Very Own Version} Pizza

1. {Vegetable Pizza}
2. {Vegetable & Ham Pizza}

3. {Ready-to-eat version for work}
Through my undergraduate & graduate school years, I lived on mostly cafeteria foods, take-out foods,  & occasional packed home-cooked meals.  I used to hate cooking or even being in the kitchen.  I guess I just didn't have the time then to give cooking a real chance--between school & work, I barely had enough time to sleep.  Now that I am working full time, I find it hard to go out to get food & finish my lunch in the allotted time.  Also, it's not easy to maintain a balanced healthy diet with the fast food selections.  So, I've recently given cooking another chance & it turns out to be quite fun. 

I made these pizzas for work this week.  I substituted pizza dough for the healthier whole grain tandoori naan & packed the pizza with different roasted vegetables such as red/orange bell peppers, tomatoes, asparagus, onions, & mushrooms.  I made two versions: one with ham & the other without (pic. 2&1).  The last one (pic. 3) is what I pack for work--untoasted. Putting it in a toaster for 5-10 min is all I need to get my meal ready at work.

Hope everyone is having a great week & embracing healthy eating!
