Del Monte Foods' Contadina brand is introducing Pizzettas as a new kind of frozen pizza bites that support better-for-you snacking, as five pieces provide one full serving of vegetables. This is all thanks to the fact that the cheese-stuffed Pizzettas are made with Roma tomato sauce and crusts baked with cauliflower.
The Four Cheese (made with a combination of mozzarella, provolone, Romano and Parmesan cheeses), Garden Vegetable and Margherita Pizzettas with basil offer a new take on classic pizza bites that are just as easy to prepare and more nourishing than ever. The bite-sized pizza snacks are packed with protein and are free from artificial preservatives. When it comes time to enjoy the pizza snacks, Contadina's Pizzettas can either be made quickly in the microwave or the oven.
