Spanish Hawaiian Pizza (1 Piece)

Limit the portion to 1–2 small slices and avoid pairing it with soda, juice, beer, or dessert.

Start the meal with a salad of leafy greens, cucumber, peppers, and a vinegar-based dressing; skip sweet dressings.

Add protein and fiber alongside the pizza, such as grilled chicken, eggs, tofu, beans, or lentils, rather than eating pizza on its own.

Ask for a thin crust, extra vegetables, and less pineapple; avoid stuffed crust and extra-sweet sauces.

Take an easy 10–20 minute walk soon after eating, if this is safe for you.

Check your glucose response as advised by your clinician and discuss repeated large spikes or medication adjustments with them.
