Pepperoni Pizza (Frozen, Cooked) (1 Pizza)

Reduce the pizza portion—for example, have 1–2 slices instead of several—and save the remainder for another meal.

Pair pizza with a large salad of leafy greens, cucumber, tomato, peppers, and a vinegar- or olive-oil-based dressing; eat the salad first.

Add a side of non-starchy roasted vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, mushrooms, or asparagus instead of fries, chips, or garlic bread.

Choose a thinner-crust or lower-carbohydrate frozen pizza when available, and add extra vegetables rather than extra crust or sugary sauces.

Include a protein-rich side such as eggs, plain Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, tofu, chicken, or tuna to make the meal more filling without adding a large starch load.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, if appropriate for your health and mobility.
