With Valentine’s Day falling on a Wednesday this year, making plans can be more difficult. Show your love all day by packing your sweetie a lunch full of love.

Ingredients:

  • One can of Pillsbury pizza crust (thin crust style)
  • 1 tablespoon of tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup of reduced fat mozzarella
  • 1 Roma tomato, cut into small wedges
  • 15 pieces of turkey pepperoni
  • few sprigs of fresh basil
  • heart-shaped cookie cutter (or you can use a knife and your hands to shape)

Directions:

  • Heat oven to 400 F. Line pan with parchment paper.
  • Unroll dough on work surface. Using a metal, heart-shaped cookie cutter, press into dough and cut out heart shaped pieces. Place on lined baking pan.
  • Spread a thin layer of tomato paste across crusts.
  • Top with reduced fat mozzarella, tomato wedges and turkey pepperoni.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes.
  • Top with fresh basil leaves.

Pair with a fresh salad and of course a couple chocolate hearts.
