Eating healthy can be hard or easy. The key is to look for new ways to enjoy your favorite foods. Being a college student, one of my favorite foods is of course pizza. But, pizza is filled with fat and calories. Thankfully, there are frozen pizzas available that cut both fat and calories down to more reasonable numbers. One of my favorite brands is Lean Cuisine. After trying the Gourmet Mushroom Pizza by Lean Cuisine, I was tempted to try many more flavors. When I found the Deep Dish version, I couldn't wait to try it, but I did wonder if it would be as good as the Brick Oven Style?

Lean Cuisine Deep Dish Pizza Review: Ease of Preparation

Lean Cuisine Deep Dish Pizza is very easy to prepare. All you have to do is remove the product from its packaging and bend the box so that it creates a platform. The Lean Cuisine Deep Dish Pizza then sits on the platform's silver lining and cooks in the microwave for around 3 minutes. You can cook the product for a longer amount of time if you want a crispier crust.

Lean Cuisine Deep Dish Pizza Review: Taste

I chose the Spinach and Mushroom flavor of Lean Cuisine Deep Dish Pizza. First of all, my favorite part of pizza is the crust. The crust of this product was wonderful. The sauce and cheese were perfect, but I did have trouble finding any mushrooms. There was lots of spinach though. The spinach was tasty, but there seemed to be a bit too much. So much so, that the flavor of the spinach was almost overwhelming.
