Atkins question(need quick answer before dinner)

[kejoda]

Can you eat the toppings of the pizza? Tim ordered a Ham and pineapple and Pepperoni and mushroom? I haven't had any carbs today.

Avoid the pineapple and eat as little sauce as possible and you should be fine just eating the toppings.

I didn't think about the sauce. He should of gone to Pizza Hut. They don't use much sauce there.

 

[nativetxn]

When you peel the cheese off a lot of the sauce will remain behind on the crust. Use a paper towel to remove as much as you can and you will be okay.

How many carbs in sauce anyway?

 

[nativetxn]

Sugar free sauce has about 5 grams in 1/2 cup. I doubt the pizzaria uses sugar free sauce though.

Go look at a can of tomato sauce, if you have one in the pantry. That will give you a good idea of the carb count.
