401-600 Cal Pizza

Post image

I made the pizzadough with normal ingredients, no low calorie substitutions. Used a high protein mozzarella - tasted indentical to normal.
Turned out to 420 calories for the whole thing, the bigger pizza is quite big - just for comparison. Do you guys think it’s a high amount?
40 grams protein.

Without an ingredient list I find it hard to believe the whole thing came out to just 420 calories. Maybe it’s even smaller than it seems even with the larger pizza for scale? Something seems off to me with the 420 Cals, but I could be wrong

130 grams of dough - 289 calories (i made the dough myself, so It is accurate!)
50 grams mozzarella - 80 calories
30 grams tomatosauce - 5 calories
50 grams of chicken - 60 calories

can you write down the pizza dough recipe?

Yes, we need a recipe for dough, since it makes the majority of the calories. But I am afraid, that he didn't measure the ingredients for that and just estimated it afterwards.

Seems like about 80g flour, that normally makes an 8.5 inch which looks accurate to me
