English Muffin Veggie Pizza

Veggie Wrap vs. Veggie Pizza: The better of these two is the Veggie Pizza. A slice of Pizza Hut Veggie Lover's pizza has only 200 calories and 8 grams of fat. A Fields and Feta Wrap at Au Bon Pain has 560 calories and 17 grams of fat. In this case, a slice of vegetable pizza is a much better choice. Wraps often have gobs of cheese, lots of oily dressing and a wrapper bigger than a dinner plate. By comparison, a single slice of veggie pizza is a smaller, healthier quantity of the same types of food. Source: Five Fast Food Fixes
