Rationalizing my lunch pizza

I. Love. Pizza. Probably more than any other food actually. We went to an Italian place for lunch today, and while usually I try to stay strong and get a salad or a sandwich, the pizza was calling my name. Cafe Roma is this random little Italian restaurant on the outskirts of the New Orleans in a strip mall next to a grocery store. It easily has the best Italian food I've had outside of the greater New York area.

Pizza combines two of my great loves, bread and cheese, to form one giant calorie bomb that should probably be avoided at all costs. Fortunately, I am awesome at reationalizing poor nutritional choices. So i got myself a personal pizza with black olives (omaga 3's), spinach (iron, calcuim), and mushrooms (fiber, selenium). At least I got some of my veggie servings out of the way, right?

And yes, it was delicious.
