100% bohemian pilsner mashed @ 65 for 75 mins, 90 min boil bittered with a single 60 min saaz addition to 30 ibu

Sounds more Czech/Bohemian than the German or Belgian the OP was asking for, but a simple/easy recipe, except I'd add in an extra Saaz addition or two.

Id throw in a about 10% munich and 5% carapils...
use yourself some hallertau with abandon.....early,late,dry

yum

German pilsner
100% pils malt, or throw in 10% munich, which is my preference.

Bitter to 30-40 IBUs with noble hops, or throw in some NZ hops such as Nelson Sauvin or Moetuka(BSaaz), my personal favourite in a pils, for a new world twist.

Hop additions are 60 minutes and a flavour addition of 1.23g per litre (rounded unless your scales are really really good...) at 15 or 10 minutes.
I got that ratio from someone on this site years back and it works well.

I use this as the base recipe for all my pilsners, and then play with the yeast and hop choice.

My advice would be to only use pale malt and bitter to around 20IBU. If you want a clean finish use Hallertau for every thing, If you want a bit more bite use Saaz.

Don't be affraid to add a % of Sugar to keep it clean and try to avoid unneccesary malt that will add body.

Boil for 90min to reduce DMS. If you can, ferment at 14deg then up the temp to 18deg when the SG hits 1.020. keep at 18deg for about 4 days after you hit FG then chill. Rack off the yeast if possible and keep chilled for a couple more weeks to lager.
