There is not much nutrition information posted on the web for Mellow Mushroom, so I have done my best to decode the menu for everyone and pick out the healthy and get rid of the rest!
Appetizer Pick(only if you’re sharing!): Bruschetta, Hummus, Capri Salad (tomato, mozzarella, basil)
Salad Pick: Field Green Salad dressing on the side OR House Salad with light ranch or balsamic on side
*Esperanza dressing is 200 calories per oz.
Pizza Pick: 1-2 slices of: Cheese Pizza, Mega Veggie Pizza OR Build Your Own:
red sauce, any veggies you choose, parmesan or mozzarella or feta (choose 1), chicken or pesto chicken
*1 slice cheese pizza is 170 calories
Calzone Pick: do not order (tons of cheese and huge= 800+ calories) unless you share with a friend of course.
Hoagies Pick: same deal as calzones (they are smothered in cheese, mayo, and a huge bun); if you must order this, then ask for it served without the bun, and eat it with a fork and knife, and request a doggy bag.

Pizza is actually modern Italian for pie. The origin of the term is murky but is said to be derived from an Old Italian word meaning “a point,” which later evolved to the Italian word pizzicare, meaning “to pinch or pluck.” A Neapolitan dialect of the word first shows up in print in 1000 A.D. in the form of picea or piza, assumably referring to the way way|the way in which} the hot pie is plucked from the oven.
