Ingredients in French Bread Pizza on FOX13 The Place

• Bread- provides essential nutrients like complex carbohydrates, plant-based protein, vitamins, and minerals that support energy, digestion, and overall health.
• Tomato sauce- provides more bioavailable (easily absorbed by the body) lycopene than raw tomatoes because cooking breaks down the cellular walls.
• Pepperoni- provides a quick source of protein and essential minerals, but it should be eaten in small amounts because it is high in sodium and saturated fat.
• Canadian bacon- is a leaner, protein-rich pork cut from the loin that offers several distinct nutritional advantages over traditional belly bacon.
• Chicken- has a very high protein content, which plays a very important role in sustaining our muscles. Rich in calcium and phosphorous for healthy bones. Stress reliever with tryptophane and vitamin B5. Immunity booster too!
• Green Bell Peppers- Peppers are full of great health benefits—they’re packed with vitamins and low in calories! They are an excellent source of vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. Bell Peppers also contain a healthy dose of fiber, folate, and iron.
• Onions- Onions not only provide flavor, they also provide important nutrients and health-promoting phytochemicals. High in vitamin C, onions are a good source of dietary fiber, and folic acid. They also contain calcium, iron, and have a high protein quality (ratio of mg amino acid/gram protein).
• Pineapple- is a delicious tropical fruit packed with essential nutrients, antioxidants, and a unique enzyme called bromelain that provides powerful health perks.
• Mushrooms- are nutrient-dense, low-calorie, and cholesterol-free foods that boost immune function, enhance heart health, and support brain health with potent antioxidants like ergothioneine and glutathione. They are a rare plant-based source of vitamin D, rich in B vitamins, selenium, and copper, while offering anti-inflammatory and cancer-preventing properties. 
• Olives- provide powerful antioxidants, healthy monounsaturated fats, and anti-inflammatory compounds that support heart health and overall wellness.
• Tomatoes- antioxidant lycopene, which has been linked to many health benefits, including reduced risk of heart disease and cancer. They are also a great source of vitamin C, potassium, folate, and vitamin K.
• Fresh mozzarella– provides excellent bone-building calcium, complete muscle-repairing protein, and essential probiotics for gut health. Because it is a soft, fresh cheese, it is significantly lower in sodium, lactose, and saturated fat than aged cheeses, making it highly digestible.
