Who doesn't like pizza? The problem with
pizza is the blood sugar. How can you eat your favorite pizza and still lose weight
and have stable blood sugars? Comes my recipe! After eating Pizza, your blood sugars tend to go up.
Whether you have type 1 diabetes or you are aware of your glycemia it is important to know
how to properly eat some pizza. My parents have come to see us in Spain and they brought me
a lot of tomatoes and courgettes. I'm not going to use the zucchini today but I thought I could make a homemade tomato sauce. I want to show you the courgette
because I've never seen such a big one! Look at this! It's almost half a meter long .They taste wonderful and have them growing in your garden. The little ones you find in supermarkets look lovely but this is the proper one! Today we are going to focus on the tomatoes for a tomato sauce, extremely easy but also super
healthy.
If you don't want to bother with this because you just want to make a very quick
pizza, then use a crushed tomato can It is roughly the same, it's kind of similar anyway if you have made a lot of tomato sauce Let it cool down, then put it in little
Ziploc bags, close it and don't forget: when you put it in the freezer, put it flat so that
as it hardens and it's flat, then you can put it one after the other like this What makes your blood sugars go up after
eating pizzas are two things: not only is it the base of the pizza that has a lot of carbs, but it's also the cheese on the pizza.
I've told you about
the fat protein index. If you put a lot
of cheese, even though cheese is supposed to be free of carbs.. People who eat
keto diet think that cheese is not going to be a problem but if you eat too much of it, it
will increase the blood sugar three hours after eating it. Well, depending how much you eat but the
minimum would be three hours after eating. That is the big problem about pizza. I've got it all sorted for you because I am using these little fajitas. Also, they contain no palm oil. I love this brand for that because the
tortillas, fajitas have no palm oil. I'm going to make the pizza with the normal wheat
one just because it will look nice on pictures but it could be a very good idea to use the wholemeal fajita. we are going to start with an easy pizza and
then as we're going through the recipe I will show you a little bit more sophisticated!
well super easy but a little bit more sophisticated!! Please don't forget that for people with diabetes type 1 who are aware of
the carb content, I am putting the carb content in the description of the video.
Click on the link, I hope you find it useful. Look how good it looks!
I'll put it on my pizza I have bought some wonderful mozzarella,
I like Buffalo mozzarella. I have made my calculations and in this whole
Buffalo mozzarella, there is almost two fat protein units. One unit corresponds
to 150 kcalories. There is almost 300 kcal so what you have to be aware. Whether you
have diabetes or are aware of your blood sugars and want
stable blood sugars, you have to know that in my recipe I have put less than half of the mozzarella so
you are completely fine, it's not going to raise your blood sugar. However, you don't want to have two of
these pizzas because otherwise you add the two mozzarellas together. Then, four hours after eating, your blood sugar will start to go up.
You have to be really
aware of the fat that you ingest, I think that's the main thing you have to remember. When you eat
pizzas or when you eat a lot of mozzarella or feta cheese or whatever,
the fat protein index is in anything that has fat or protein . It might increase
your blood sugar if you eat too much of it. My first pizza took me exactly seven minutes to cook
so needless to say this is very quick so that is why for the second pizza I am making you will
need to cook it a little bit before putting it in the oven.
I will put sausage onions and spinach
as a topping. Same again for the fat protein index you have to be careful careful not to eat too
many sausages because they have a lot of fat and a lot of protein, but this will be fine .
I'm using roughly half of the sausage. If you want to eat a pizza, I recommend eating a salad before eating the Pizza. In the oven for seven minutes My latest one is going to be a little bit
different because this time protein comes from prawns.
Look at this! I've never been really good at making very
thin strips but look! They're all nice and thin.
The third pizza is ready.
Add the rucula after cooking. Look at this! I wonder which one is going to be my son's
favorite when he comes back. My darling baby dog is waiting underneath the oven
just in case I open and drop something, then he's right
there! Please let me know down in the comments which one was your favorite. For me,
I think it's the other sausage one. I hope you've enjoyed my recipe of low carb
pizza. I think it's a very good substitute for a high carb, high fat, high protein Pizza. At the end of this recipe I will
show you what you can make with the little quesadillas or fajitas. you can make breakfast, when you come back from school or from work,
you can have something with spinach and cheese It's really nice and filling. I think that's it I will see you next time my friend, thank you so
much for watching. Please look after yourself. Bye Bye!.
