A pizza slice with olives combines the classic flavors of Italian cuisine with a distinct Mediterranean twist. This savory treat starts with a traditional dough base, topped with rich tomato sauce, gooey melted cheese, and black or green olives scattered across. Olives provide a unique salty and tangy flavor while contributing heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, essential nutrients like vitamin E, and powerful antioxidants. While the cheese adds calcium and protein, it can also be high in saturated fats, so portion moderation is key. The foundation of tomato sauce brings lycopene, a nutrient linked to various health benefits. Depending on preparation, the slice can range from indulgent to moderately nutritious, especially if paired with whole grain crust or reduced-fat cheese. Originating in Italy, pizza has become a global favorite, and this variation highlights the robust, wholesome ingredients of Mediterranean fare while maintaining the comfort-food appeal pizza is famous for.
