The famous new pizza diet
Posted by the shadow at 04:15, 02 Jun 2007This diet is good for all you folk out there who are big-boned like I am.
I am rather good at making up diets and had a lot of success with a particular diet many years ago.
It was the big red apple,cashew nut and chocolate mint biscuit diet.The biscuits are the ones dipped in chocolate.
I think it covered all the basic food groups and it made me happy.What more can you ask from a diet.
Unfortunatly the diet came to rather a sticky end.
It was the year 1985 and we were having the coldest winter in Brisbane for 100 years or something.
We even had sleet where I lived near South Brisbane.
On this particular night I went to bed with my packet of chocolate mint biscuits and turned down the electric blanket while I settled in for a nice treat and a good book.
I went to sleep and the packet of chocolate biscuits somehow moved down to my chest.
I awoke many hours later with melted chocolate all over me.I thought it was something else and panicked.
As you would.
The pizza diet is thus....
Take a flat bread,whatever you call it.
Cover liberally with a salsa of tomato, onion and garlic.
Sprinkle heavily with mozarella cheese.
Slice capsicum finely over it.
Grate a heap of feta over it.
Slice up a big heap of black olives and sprinkle on top.
Then you can slice very thinly a shallot if you like.
My shallots are about as big as a leek so I didn't.
Bake for as long as it takes, about half an hour in a hot oven,not fan-forced but convection.
Delicious!
Now on Saturdays I can make 5 or 6 of these, whatever number of flat breads there are in the packet.
That's nearly one for every day.
And I might mention that with the salsa,fry it lightly before you put it on the flat bread.
You can add basil to this mix or whatever you like.
This is my vegetarian pizza.I tend to lean to vegetarian pizzas because I don't eat the processed meat that comes on meat pizzas.
I haven't made up any more pizza recipes yet but when I do I will let you know.
Questions.....
Do you lose weight on it, and are there naked people involved?
The answers are no for the first one.
And no for the second one.

I haven't had a waist for so long I can't remember where it would go if I suddenly acquired one.
The only place where's there's a bit of slack is around my knees.
I adhere to the theory that if the weight wants to come off me then it will do so when it's ready.
And I can still walk to the fish and chips shop. :)

Sounds really good shadows. I'll have to look hard for the flat bread, I've not seen it in markets/grocery stores around here or I guess I could just make my own.
Handy hint, never fry while naked.

shadows, I wasn't totally naked. I was young and had on a halter top and hip huggers, bare skin in between. Was frying ground round patties with bacon wrapped around the edge (mock filet mignon) and got popped right smartly. Lesson learned. I remember my grandfather (born 1887) saying, "A woman should wear a dress that is high up to the neck and low down to the feet." I didn't listen. -----------------------------Truth is stranger than fiction.

I like the basil bit. I love fresh basil and eat it on pasta and flat bread. But, if I ate pizza like that every day I think I would get stopped up, I would need to drink some of that herbal dieter's tea to get rid of the dough.
Now, I must admit, when I first read your title, I thought, ok, here is a new fad of how to loose weight and you can eat all of the pizza you want, haha........it was you with your witty comments. And your diet of mint biscuits sounded cozy. I could use some chocolate right now -- I am fried.

Colette, Where do you find your flat bread? I too got a chuckle out of the melted chocolate in the bed. I bet that was a mess. Love, Pam -----------------------------Truth is stranger than fiction.

I tossed up whether or not to lick it off but my innate dignity and the fact that I was late for work stopped me.

I can get it at the grocer, or I make it my self with whole wheat flour, or unbleached flour but it is soft, I liek it thin too, not too much bread, and I must have mushrooms, they are good for your bones and boen marrow you know, it is the phosphorus in them.

It is usually with other breads in the supermarket.I use it too to make salad rolls.I like it because there is no yeast in it.

Hi Colette,
Because I eat when I feel like it rather than eat proper meals it was perfect for me.
I could nibble an apple or take a handful of cashews and I saved the chocolate for the nights.
The apples and cashews would get me through the days.
Eating should be about enjoying food.
And all my little fat cells can prove that.
