  There are tons of pizza restaurants in and around Provo, Utah. It’s taking me a while to visit and try each pizza restaurant around here. I love pizza, but I know it tends to be high in calories and fats, especially with all that yummy melted cheese. Since I watch my calorie intake and try to stick to my Mediterranean lifestyle of eating, I only have pizza about once a month.

I have one on my refrigerator and noticed the Marco’s...
