Can pizza be good for you?

Yes! It may depend on what kind of diet you\u2019re pursuing, and how well you manage your portions., but pizza can be healthy in a variety of ways. Here\u2019s why we believe that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several High-Protein Opportunities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Any reputable pizza parlor will have a dedicated \u201cmeat lover\u201d option somewhere on its menu<\/a>. This is where you get a solid dose of protein from sausage, pepperoni, ham, bacon, and more. If you eat with us, you\u2019ll find satisfying meaty selections like Doppio Pepperoni, Italian Works, and even Chicken Rustica pizza<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Enjoy Tomatoes? Great! They\u2019re Rich in Lycopene!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s an antioxidant, known as Lycopene, which lowers bad cholesterol and blood pressure. The good news is you\u2019ll find plenty of it in the tomatoes in our Russo\u2019s Pizza Sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russo\u2019s Carries Multiple Vegetarian Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You can order two outstanding veggie-focused pizzas: 1) Vegetarian Pizza, or 2) Heart Health Veggie\u2122<\/strong>. These feature some of the best \u201csuperfoods\u201d like fresh spinach, white onions, and artichokes. Don\u2019t forget that you can also dine with us for several savory salads, always chock full of garden-fresh vegetables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay Leaner with Thin Crust or Cauliflower Crust<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Would you like to eat pizza with fewer carbohydrates? That\u2019s no problem when you try one of our thin-crust options (like Brooklyn Square Nonna\u2019s<\/strong>). Plus, we even make cauliflower crust, which has been a tremendous hit lately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russo\u2019s Insists on Quality Ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Part of today\u2019s anxiety over healthy dieting comes from an ubiquity of poor ingredients. Let\u2019s face it: much of what you find in a grocery store is dubious at best and relies on unpronounceable ingredients for preservation. Russo\u2019s, on the other hand, only uses fresh ingredients, including premium mozzarella and various gluten-free offerings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoying a Nice Slice of Pizza Helps You Relax<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget about the mental health benefits of relaxing with a delicious slice of Russo\u2019s pizza. They don\u2019t call it \u201ceat, drink, and be merry\u201d for nothing. While you don\u2019t have to consume enormous amounts of food, there are obvious mental benefits for enjoying delicious items temperately after working hard all day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s a list of six reasons pizza could be good for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We believe you\u2019ll discover plenty of others when you visit Russo\u2019s New York Pizzeria<\/strong>.
