Turkish Pizza (1 Piece)

Eat a smaller portion of Turkish pizza and avoid adding extra bread or fries; consider saving half for another meal.

Pair it with a large non-starchy salad (such as lettuce, cucumber, tomato, peppers, and herbs) dressed with olive oil and vinegar or lemon.

Add a protein-rich side such as plain unsweetened yogurt, grilled chicken, eggs, or cheese to slow absorption and improve fullness.

Skip sweetened drinks, fruit juice, and desserts with the meal; choose water, sparkling water, or unsweetened tea instead.

Eat slowly and have the protein and salad before the pizza rather than eating the pizza first.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, if this is safe for you. If large spikes are frequent despite these changes, discuss meal planning and medication timing with your diabetes clinician.
