Rubbing the crust with cut garlic is somewhat time consuming and then the garlic would have to be saved for another use. It would be much easier to lightly sprinkle the crust with 1/2 to 3/4 tsp of garlic powder instead or add it to the sauce!

I don't care much for this kind of pizza, but my husband and daughter really like it, so I am sure that I will be making this pizza again.

To me, this is not that healty! Look at the sodium intake. When you should only have 500 mg per meal.

This is not a pizza that I would eat but my children love it. I will be making it for them many more times and keeping the recipe.
