Pizzas are one of the worst things you can eat if you are trying to control your blood sugar. However, if you are sticking to a lo-carb regimen, there are TONS of low-carb pizza base recipes that you can use:

There's a REALLY easy one that I can't find right now - but basically you put a cold COOKED chicken breast (or chicken pieces) in a blender with a cup of grated mozarella cheese and blend until fine. Then, press the mix into a baking tray and bake for 10 mins. Then, add your toppings and whack under the grill for 5 mins to finish off. I've made this many times, and it ALWAYS beats my pizza cravings into submission.

Ironnically, when you are on a low carb diet, the toppings (meat, veg, all types of cheese, etc...) on a pizza are actually GREAT for controlling BG. Unfortunately, pineapple is one of the bad toppings - so keep it to a minimum.

And STOP writing in CAPS! :wink: :thumbup:
