We all love a nice tasty pizza, but sometimes a single slice can have more kilojoules (energy) than a whole meal itself. When choosing a pizza, try including some of these helpful kilojoule reducing hints:
- Choose a thin crust base instead of thick base. Definitely try to avoid the stuff crusted pizzas! Think about all the extra kilojoules, fat and salt.
- Ask for heaps of vegetables on top with small amounts of fat reduced cheese.
- Choose seafood toppings over the processed meats such as salami, ham, bacon, pepperoni.
- If you like a thick based pizza topped with processed meat, have 1 or 2 slices and then fill up on a side or greek salad.
- Make your own pizza at home! Use pita bread, English muffins or buy a pre-made pizza base from the supermarket. Then, add your own choose of toppings. See today’s recipe for a get pizza idea!
