London: Dr Clare Bailey Mosley has come up with a tasty low-carb pizza recipe that’s perfect for anyone looking to keep their blood sugar in check. It’s packed with Mediterranean diet goodies and is super easy to whip up.
This recipe only needs nine ingredients and takes about 20 minutes to make. It’s a great option for a quick lunch or dinner. Dr Clare, who’s a GP and the wife of the late Dr Michael Mosley, really knows her stuff when it comes to healthy eating.
She’s all about helping people make better food choices, especially for those managing diabetes. The recipe was shared on BBC Morning Live’s Instagram, and folks are loving it!
People in the comments were excited to try it out. One person said, “We love these! A delicious, quick and easy lunch.” Another chimed in with, “Mmm, yes please!” It’s clear that this pizza is a hit.
Dr Clare suggests pairing the pizza with some arugula, which is great for digestion and can help keep blood sugar levels steady. It’s a simple way to add some extra nutrients to your meal.
To make the pizza, you’ll need portobello mushrooms, olive oil, garlic, mixed herbs, tomato paste, mozzarella cheese, cherry tomatoes, sea salt, and black pepper. Just wash the mushrooms, prep your ingredients, and you’re good to go!
After mixing everything together, pop the mushrooms under the grill for about 8-10 minutes until the cheese is all melty. It’s that easy!
What makes this pizza so good for blood sugar? Well, tomatoes are low in carbs and high in fiber, which helps keep you full. Plus, they have a low glycemic index, so they won’t spike your blood sugar.
Mushrooms are also low in carbs and packed with fiber. They might even help improve insulin resistance. And let’s not forget about olive oil, which is great for digestion and blood sugar control.
While mozzarella is a decent choice for those with diabetes, it’s best to enjoy it in moderation. And garlic? It’s known to help with insulin sensitivity, but be careful if you’re on diabetes meds, as it can lower blood sugar too much.
