21 Day Fix Pizza Recipes (2024)

FAQs

Can you eat pizza on the 21 day fix? ›

This is why I love the 21 Day Fix, guys. I mean, you can eat PIZZA and still be on plan. To celebrate this awesomeness, here are a bunch of 21 Day Fix Pizza recipes for you guys to try!

Meat lovers don't have to lose out. Swap out fatty meats like pepperoni and pork sausage for thinly sliced (leaner) cuts of salami, turkey bacon and chicken sausage.

Mayonnaise– Any brand will do because if there were some kind of restriction our list would mention it. It is 1 oil teaspoon on our list. Mustard – Mustard is free to use, honey mustard is the exception since you have to count the honey. Ketchup– Find one that uses natural sugar and keeps that sugar to 8g or below.

For this, I use the rule of 55. You take the number 55 as a starting point and subtract the temperature of the flour and the room temperature. The number that remains is the desired water temperature. This controls the temperature of your preferment and it comes out between 16 and 18°C.”

Here's the reasoning behind that rule: Most medium pizzas are cut into eight slices unless otherwise requested. Therefore, each slice comprises 1/8 of the pizza. Since the average hungry person eats three slices of pizza, it follows that you must simply multiply the number of guests by 3/8.

Three slices per adult and two slices per child offer a good base to start from when you're estimating how many pizzas to order. If you know in advance that you have guests with major pizza appetites, allow for one or two more slices per person, just to be safe.

Turkey sausage and roasted chicken provide a healthy and satisfying alternative to regular pepperoni slices. Bell peppers, mushrooms, and black olives are common pizza toppings, all pleasantly nutritious. Some other nutrient-rich options include butternut squash, tofu, lox, and artichokes.

Opt for a thin-crust pizza instead of a deep-dish. Skip the stuffed pizza crusts and dipping sauces. Enjoy your slice of pizza with a side salad or cooked vegetables. Top your pizza with lean protein, like chicken strips, instead of processed meat, like pepperoni.

What is the healthiest cheese for pizza? ›

Mozzarella is relatively low in fat and calories. This makes it a healthier cheese option compared to others.

Avoid higher-calorie options: Order thin crust over deep-dish or stuffed crust options to keep your overall calorie and carb intake under control. Cut smaller slices: When cutting yourself a slice of pizza, consider portion control and avoid super-sized servings.

Cheat days mean you can have pizza for breakfast, ice cream for lunch and burgers and fries for dinner! On a cheat day, you are allowed to eat whatever you want. It is possible that you may not count the calories as on a normal day.

You'll notice that avocado and nuts are at the top of the food list while cheese is at the bottom of the food list. You can use cheese in your blue container every day, but if you hit a weight loss stall you're going to want to switch these foods up a bit.

21 Day Fix Container Cheat Sheet:

Purple Container: Fruits like blueberries, strawberries, mango, and banana. Red Container: Proteins like chicken breast, salmon, eggs, and tempeh. Yellow Container: Carbohydrates like sweet potato, brown rice, tortillas, whole-wheat bread, and wine (yes, wine!).
