Pizza with Meat and Fruit (1 Pizza (12 Inches Dia))

Reduce the pizza portion and add a large side salad with leafy greens, cucumber, tomatoes, and an olive-oil-based dressing.

Choose a thin, whole-grain crust and prioritize vegetable toppings such as mushrooms, peppers, spinach, and olives over extra cheese or processed meats.

Limit fruit to a small serving of berries, cherries, apple, pear, or orange; avoid fruit juice and large portions of dried fruit.

Eat the salad or non-starchy vegetables first, then the pizza, and include a protein-rich topping such as chicken or tuna if available.

Skip sugary drinks; choose water, sparkling water, or unsweetened tea with the meal.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating to help moderate the post-meal rise.
