Any healthy/no sugar added pizza alternatives/recipes?! This is the fifth pizza to tempt me in less than a week!
-
annefood Hey @ingalls ! Pizza is one of those foods like tomato sauce that should be naturally sugar free, but often isn't, depending on where you're getting it. If you're at the type of restaurant that...

DietID_TeamDietitians And if you want to venture to make your own pizza crust at home, the Roberta's pizza crust recipe is THE BEST https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1016230-robertas-pizza-dough - no added sugar!

XxlxX As a healthy pizza base you could use a wrap and add your own veg, meats and cheese to it on top
Starbucks?
Can I use whole milk and espresso without sweetener? Definitely better flavor but doesn’t the whole milk replace sugar w other calories??
“Lactic acid” vs “Lactose” on the list of 56 sugar names - also something to avoid?
-
annefood No, you don’t need to avoid lactic acid in the Avoid Added Sugar Challenge. It’s used in fermentation (yogurt, pickled veggies, sourdough...) and as a preservative or flavoring agent.

annefood And lactose is an intrinsic sugar (not an added sugar) that is naturally occurring in dairy. So no need to worry about that either.

ingalls Thanks! I kept looking it up. ;-)

Hard to find stuff while away on business! -
annefood Good call. Yes it is indeed!
How do the streaks work?? I don’t really understand. Mine is always zero :(
-
annefood A streak is when you don’t use any full or half passes, and thus successfully avoid added sugar. No passes used for 3 days and you have a 3 day streak, for example. It resets when you use one- I...

shmoozii I was wondering about that too.
For Breast feeding moms: energy balls without sugar! I just took out honey and chocolate chips and added in a bunch of dates

annefood Good to know! I will try this! Sounds delicious too.

tovisnaw Thanks! Going to try this week
Added sugar??
It says 3 grams of sugar, but I don’t see sugar in the ingredients unless it’s disguised as something else?? Can I eat this trader joe muesli?
-
annefood Hey! The sugar is coming from the raisins, pear juice concentrate, and dried apples. Current nutrition labels show total sugar, which is a combination of any intrinsic sugars (from fruit, grains,...
