Ridgewood NJ, Looking to start your day off with a nutritious meal? As we had long suspected , according to blogger and dietitian Chelsey Amer forget Cheerios,  reach for a slice of pizza. While Amer falls short of calling pizza a new super food .On Monday, the blogger and dietitian Chelsey Amer caused a stir when she told the Chicago Tribune that a greasy slice of pizza is healthier than a bowl of cereal with milk.

“You may be surprised to find out that an average slice of pizza and a bowl of cereal with whole milk contain nearly the same amount of calories,” Amer said. “However, pizza packs a much larger protein punch, which will keep you full and boost satiety throughout the morning.”

Amer acknowledges that pizza isn’t necessarily a health food, but maintains that it’s a more balanced meal than a typical bowl of sugar flakes.

Pizza Options in Ridgewood , Glen Rock and Ho Ho Kus include : La Bella Pizza ,Brooklyn’s Coal Burning Brick Oven Pizza , Renato’s Pizza , Santoni’s Pizzeria and Restaurant , A Mano, Francesca Brick Oven Pizza & Pasta , Puzo’s Family Restaurant , John’s Boy Pizzeria , and The Sicilian Sun .

Thank you so much.  https://www.gofundme.com/2tf6wq3w

“Hi Everyone. I ran into Kenny from LaBella Pizzaria outside the store a little while ago. He is devastated and still in shock over the electrical fire. He told me he lost his “baby” on Sunday. I told him that we are all praying for him and we miss him, and he has our love and support. He misses us and he wants everyone to know he loves you all and he will be back as soon as he can be. He is very grateful and thankful for our prayers and concern. Please continue to pray for Kenny, he has a long road ahead rebuilding. “

“Anytime I have reched out to Kenny he has been more than helpful. For example , he was supposed to do the pizza for LaX Day this weekend…..30 pies at almost nothing…..every other place in town was way more $. And while insurance does cover, it will not cover everything. A few years back I had shoulder surgery…walked in and orderd about $50 worth of food to feed the family…..he looked at me and said feel better…this is on me! LEts keep in mind….bussiness cant help every need they are apporached with……they get hit up constantly by every school in the district. Im happy Dougie took this upon himself. He saw the need, and did what he thought was right. WHile there may be some who disagree, ther are many who agree and think this is a wonderful thing!”
