DietID_TeamDietitians 6yr So there are marinades that have added sugar and those that don’t. Dijon mustard is oftentimes made with honey (which is added sugar) so you can try the same recipe with ground mustard instead. You won’t have the sweetness but it will still be delicious. You can also try adding fresh orange slices to your marinade for sweet and citrus flavors. Hope that helps! -
ingalls 6yr Thanks! Part of the question stemmed from picking up pre-made stuff. I noticed some things are awesome - like salad dressing listed ingredients. But marinades might just say “Dijon mustard” with no listed ingredients. So - learning to read in between the lines! -
DietID_TeamDietitians 6yr Yes!! this is a hard one. Once the new nutrition labels hit the market, they will list out the actual grams of added sugar vs naturally occuring sugar. That should make all the difference. Great job looking at the labels though!
Any healthy/no sugar added pizza alternatives/recipes?! This is the fifth pizza to tempt me in less than a week!

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
“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. ;-)
