I am sure most of you have caught on to the two ingredient dough rage by now. Since nonfat Greek yogurt is a zero point food on Weight Watchers, we can now have a dough that is very very low in points. The only points come from the flour used, and when spread across all of the servings it makes, it comes out to minimal points. This two ingredient can be used for bagels, sandwich bread, and even pizza. Healthy Alfredo pizza is just that - delicious low point toppings added to this low point dough.
The two basic ingredients are self-rising flour and nonfat plain Greek yogurt. From there, you just add the seasonings that sound good to you. If you have a craving for an Everything bagel, add Everything But The Bagel seasoning to your dough. The creativity with this dough is endless. To keep this healthy alfredo pizza healthy, the alfredo sauce is also made with nonfat Greek yogurt. And it tastes way better than you might think! One reason I love this healthy Alfredo pizza is you can have ½ of it as your serving and still not blow your points out of the water. It’s a quick, easy weeknight meal that you and the family will love.Â
Three reasons why you need to make this recipe!
Who doesn’t love pizza?Â
With how healthy this pizza is, you can make it over and over with no guilt over blowing your diet. Make it for your next movie night, so you can join in on the pizza with the family.Â
You can get creative with it.Â
Don’t like spinach or chicken on your pizza? That’s okay - add your own healthy toppings! Make it how you like it. After all, that’s what a pizza is for.Â
It will help you stay on track with your Weight Watchers diet.Â
Cravings are the one thing that derails most people. Instead of resisting all ideas of pizza, you can just use this recipe to make it fit your goals.Â
Ingredients you need to make Healthy Alfredo Pizza:Â
FOR THE DOUGH
- ½ cup self rising flourÂ
- ½ cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
FOR THE ALFREDO SAUCE
- 1 teaspoon light butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons skim milk
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon finely grated parmesan cheese
- Dash salt and pepper
- 3 tablespoons nonfat plain Greek yogurt
PIZZA TOPPINGS
- 4 oz cooked, shredded chicken (or more if you prefer!)Â
- Fresh spinach (I used baby spinach)
- ¼ cup (16g) shredded asiago cheeseÂ
- Sprinkle of Italian seasoningÂ
How to make Healthy Alfredo Pizza (step by step):Â
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- Make the pizza dough by mixing the ½ cup of self rising flour with ½ cup of yogurt. Sprinkle a little flour on a flat surface and knead the dough for 2 minutes.
- Roll out the dough on a sprayed piece of parchment paper. I made my crust more on the thin side for this pizza, but you can roll it to however thick you like. Pre-bake the dough in the oven for 12 minutes.
- While the pizza dough is baking, make the alfredo sauce. Melt the 1 teaspoon butter in the microwave. Stir in the milk and the garlic powder. Return it to the microwave, and heat for 30 seconds. Then stir in the parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and whisk in the yogurt. It should give you a creamy sauce.
- Spread the sauce over the pre-baked pizza dough leaving the edges clear.
- Top with the spinach, shredded chicken, asiago cheese, and seasoning.
- Bake it in the oven for approx 14-16 minutes.
- Serve immediately. I cut mine into 6 pieces, but you can make it as many as you like!Â

Different ways to change up this recipe:Â
- Turkey pepperoni, black olives, and roasted garlic is a fantastic pizza option. Blue cheese crumbles with the chicken would also work well. It’s really up to you and what you like!Â
- My zero point ranch is a good dipping sauce for this pizza. And all the Greek yogurt throughout is adding to your protein intake!Â
Tips and Tricks for Making Healthy Alfredo Pizza:Â
- Start with a little less than ½ cup of the nonfat Greek yogurt. I find that a full ½ cup makes the dough just a bit too sticky. You can always add more if you find that it needs it.Â
- Kneading the dough is a very important step to get the right texture. It develops the gluten in the flour and gives you a tender pizza crust that’s strong enough to hold all the toppings. Without kneading the dough, you’ll have a tough, flimsy dough.Â

I made the pizza two days in a row! Today had unexpected five guests, and put them to work rolling out the dough. I did make one change for speed. I bought purchased Alfredo sauce, but it was only 3pts for 1/4 cp and that covered two pizzas. Probably not as good as yours, but very quick. They all raved over the crispy crust and brainstormed over what else could be made with it! Thank you!!!
Drizzle
That's awesome, there are so many things you can do with the dough and I'm looking forward to coming up with some new ones 🙂
Sonia
I just baked 2 bagels using your 2 ingredient recipe and I absolutely loved it! My husband devoured one , he’s not on WW and thought I went to the store to pick these up. I’m very pleased! Can’t wait to try the pizza recipe next!
Drizzle
Hi Sonia, so glad you both enjoyed them, the possibilities with the dough are endless 🙂
Judy Brunton
I can't wait to make this - I love pizza, cheese, chicken, spinach - so totally up my alley.
Thanks for sharing this
Drizzle
you are very welcome Judy, hope you enjoy it!
Lorinda
Have you tried making any of the bubble up casseroles with the 2 ingredient dough? I'm interested in how it would turn out.
Drizzle
I have not, no, and I don't think I will, I've seen others say the dough is not baking properly .. If you try it let me know 🙂
Tamara Harris
What are the points without the crust? I had bout something I wanted to use as crust.
Drizzle
The crust/ 2 ID is 6SP
Betty McCullough
Tried this tonight. Loved it. Could of eaten it all but saved some for tomorrow. Excited to try other toppings.
Drizzle
So good right!! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Riley J
This looks great. Will any brand of self-rising cake flour work (and be the same points) or is this brand specifically lower in SPs?
This is my first day on the freestyle WW plan, so this is all new to me. You're the first blog I have found that I liked!
Drizzle
Hi Riley, welcome to WW 🙂 I hope you enjoy the recipes and that means a lot to me that you like what you see 🙂 Most flours will be 6SP 1/2 cup, my U.S friends tell me there is one in the States that is 5SP but I can't remember the name, I'm fine spending the extra point .. and yes any self raising flour will work 🙂 reach out if you have any questions about the program (my email is kate@drizzlemeskinny.com)
Suzi
I'm going to make this tonight. My daughter made it twice last week because she loved it so much! Can't wait to try it!
Drizzle
That is awesome to hear, hope you enjoy it too 🙂
carri goodman
Hi, I love all your recipes, they are fantastic !!!!where do u get the shredded chicken?
Drizzle
Hi, thank you 🙂 I make my shredded chicken in the crock pot, usually a batch a week, in a little broth on high about 3-4 hours then shred 🙂
Pam
Your post says the whole pizza is 9 points, but recipe says 7 points for 1/2 pizza, did I misunderstand? Thanks
Drizzle
Hi Pam, 9 points is freestyle, 7 smart points for half is the old smart point program (before freestyle)
Sharon Cole
I love this pizza! The old plan was Beyond the Scale. Smart Points is how we count our points both then and now.
Drizzle
Glad you enjoyed the pizza Sharon 🙂
Kathy Collette
Kate, I loved your recipes!!!!! Question is on the 2 ingredient pizza crust....did you put it on a pan or directly on the oven rack ?
Love, love you bubble up enchilada!! Keep your Awesome recipes coming .
Thanks?
Drizzle
Hi Kathy, thank you for your kind words.. I put it on a baking sheet 🙂
Kayla
Just discovered your site recently and have tried a couple things. Everything has been so good! We made this last night and it was delicious! Can't wait to make it again!
Drizzle
Hi Kayla, so glad you enjoyed the pizza, and I hope you continue to enjoy the recipes 🙂
Brittany
I tried to make this recipe however it was very sticky. I couldn’t lift it off my floured countertop without it falling apart. I didn’t have parchment paper so I tried using wax paper to role it out but it stuck too much to both sides. I gave up and made it with a flatout flat bread pizza crust. Any suggestions to making the dough?? Also did you bake it on the parchment paper or could I use a pizza stone?
Drizzle
Hi Brittany, the dough can be tricky and it can take a few times to master it, I know many that needed several attempts, the brand of yogurt could change things up too, if it was too sticky you should of added more flour, also I find just under 1/2 cup yogurt to 1/2 cup of flour best... I used parchment paper
Alicia Barton
I found the dough recipe else were and for a full batch its 1 cup flour and 1 cup yogurt... Ihad trouble with my first two batches as well. I tried making empanadas and they ended up a mess in the oven. Lol. I have started adding the yogurt about 1/3 cup at a time and stopping when the consistancy is correct.... i ended up using right under a full cup.
Drizzle
YOur not alone with having to try a few attempts, I too find just under equal parts of yogurt is best 🙂
Metty
Omg i really liked this pizza. And the rest of the family did too
Drizzle
So glad you all enjoyed it 🙂
Andrea
Can this be made ahead and refrigerated for future use?
Drizzle
I'm not too sure, I only ever make it fresh but I think it would be ok to
Cassandra
Love the recipe! Thanks for sharing! I make bagels all the time and make my own self rising flour using regular flour, baking powder and salt. Works out perfectly! I’ve also let the dough rise a bit so that my bagels come out a bit bigger 🙂 I’ll be trying the pizza recipe tonight and can’t wait!!
Drizzle
Thanks for the tip, hope you enjoy the pizza 🙂
Harmony
BEST! PIZZA! EVER!
My husband is a pizza addict and he asks for this pizza now instead of carryout!
Drizzle
That is an awesome compliment 🙂 so glad you both enjoy it!
Debbie
Excited to try...have you ever used wheat flour and baking power instead of the self rising flour for the crust? We are enjoying all of your recipes! Thank you
Drizzle
Hi Debbie, so glad your enjoying the recipes, no I have used the self-raising flour but I am sure it will still work, you'll need salt too though
Chris
Have you tried the cheese hack that a member (Daniel Hall) came up with on WW Connect? EVEN fat free cheese melts & tastes good!
He mixes it with fat free Greek Yogurt! I do it all the time now...
Drizzle
No I haven't, not a fan of the FF cheese, I can do the reduced fat but that's about it 😉
Ida pletz
We made this pizza for dinner tonight very filling and it was good will make It again
Drizzle
Hi Ida, I am so glad you enjoyed the pizza, it is one of my favorites 🙂
