This Low Calorie High Protein Pizza has 19g of protein per slice! It’s just 154 calories per slice, and that includes the cheese and 3 different protein packed meats!. But it’s not just the meat that boosts the protein in this recipe, I worked lots of protein into the sauce and the pizza dough too.
