Two Plant-Based Pizzas That Reset Blood Sugar: One Strict, One With a Little Wiggle Room

Posted on by

Pizza isn’t the enemy, random insulin spikes are. These two variations keep the flavor while protecting metabolic flexibility. Version A is aggressively strict for reset phases. Version B gives you a hair of wiggle room while staying disciplined.

Why These Pizzas Work for Insulin Sensitivity

Ultra‑high fiber Minimal glycemic load Oil‑free cooking Phytonutrient density Satiety without spikes

Translation: better glucose disposal, fewer crashes, more consistency for fasting numbers and long term metabolic freedom.

Version A; Aggressive Reset Pizza (No‑Wiggle)

Completely oil‑free • Low net carbs • Heavy on non‑starchy veg • 100% plant‑based

Crust (1 medium)

  • 1 cup blanched almond flour
  • 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 1/2 cup cauliflower rice, lightly steamed & squeezed dry
  • 1/2 tsp aluminum‑free baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp mineral salt
  • 2-3 tbsp water, as needed
  1. Heat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a sheet with parchment.
  2. Mix dry ingredients, fold in cauliflower, add water to form a soft dough.
  3. Press into a thin round (about 10–11″). Par‑bake 15 minutes.

Sauce (oil‑free)

  • 1 cup no‑salt‑added crushed tomatoes
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Optional: pinch cayenne
  1. Simmer 5 minutes to bloom spices. Spread thinly on crust.

Toppings

  • Sliced zucchini, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers
  • Handful chopped spinach or kale
  • Fresh basil after baking
  • Nutritional yeast (cheesy flavor), optional
  • Optional sprinkle of hemp hearts for protein
  1. Bake topped pizza at 375°F for 10-12 minutes until edges set.
  2. Rest 3 minutes; add basil; slice into 6-8.
Coach’s note: Keep sauce thin and toppings generous. Volume from non‑starchy veg = satisfaction without a glucose cliff.

Version B; Reasonably Strict Pizza (Small Wiggle Room)

Still plant‑based • Sprouted ancient grain crust • Optional minimal cashew cheese • Oil‑free cooking

Crust (1 medium)

  • 1 cup sprouted spelt or sprouted whole‑wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp mineral salt
  • ~3/4 cup warm water (as needed)
  1. Heat oven to 400°F (204°C). Mix dry; add water; knead briefly.
  2. Rest dough 30 minutes. Roll thin; par‑bake 8–10 minutes.

Sauce

  • Same as Version A, plus 1 roasted red pepper blended in (optional natural sweetness)

Toppings

  • Same vegetables as Version A
  • Optional: 1/4–1/2 cup minimally processed cashew‑based plant mozzarella (no coconut oil)
  • Optional: a few artichoke hearts (packed in water)
  • Optional: thin roasted sweet potato rounds for slow‑burn carbs
  1. Bake topped pizza at 400°F for 12 minutes or until edges crisp.
  2. Cool briefly; slice; enjoy.
Dial the wiggle precisely: Keep plant cheese to a light scatter, not a blanket. If using sweet potato, keep slices thin and portioned.

Make It Yours (Without Breaking the Reset)

  • Spice lever: oregano, basil, thyme, chili flakes; unlimited.
  • Protein lever: hemp hearts or finely crumbled baked tofu (no oil).
  • Volume lever: pile on mushrooms & greens; they tame hunger without spikes.
  • Timing: Best eaten earlier in the day or post‑training for superior glucose disposal.

If you’re deep in a reset, default to Version A. When you’ve earned a touch of flexibility, rotate Version B strategically.
