*This is a sponsored post with Atkins. All my opinions are my own and not swayed by outside sources.*If you’re going low carb, you know how tough it can be. Let’s face it, carbs are in pretty much everything delicious and yummy on this planet. One of the biggest heartbreaks of going low carb is losing pizza. It was a blow for me, but here’s some good news for those of us doing the low carb thing. Pizza is finally on the Atkins diet menu!
The Atkins Diet Menu – Throw Some Pizza on It
I’m a huge fan of Atkins. Low carb is a great way to loose weight. Notice, I said low carb instead of no carb. We need some carbs for our bodies and our brains to function properly. We just don’t need the massive amount of carbs that the average American typically ingests in a day. Unfortunately, traditional pizza is a great source of said massive amount of carbs. Atkins has been the leader in low carb meals since I can remember, so I’m super excited that they finally put pizza on the Atkins diet menu. Yay!
Pizza is one of the fastest and easiest quick meals out there. It’s so easy and fast that about two thirds of us have a least one frozen pizza in our freezer. With that in mind, Atkins finally released a pizza option for their diet plan. This isn’t your average frozen pizza. It’s heavy on the protein and the taste and light on the carbs. I think that’s great, because a quick, easy, delicious, and HEALTHY meal is perfect for me and my family. Because they’re single serve, I can just throw a few into our oven, and everyone in the family has their own pizzas. That’s especially great for my family, because we’re all addicted to pizza. We MUST have it once a week.
The pizzas added to the Atkins diet menu come in four delicious flavors:
- Stone Fired Pepperoni Pizza
- Stone Fired Cheese Pizza
- Stone Fired Three Meat Pizza
- Stone Fired Vegetable Pizza
Atkins pizzas are as healthy as they are delicious:
- Fits into the Atkins diet menu
- 11 grams of Net Carbs
- 2 grams of sugar
- 23-26 grams of protien
- Between 320 and 410 calories per pizza
I don’t know about you, but those sound pretty delicious to me. In fact, I’ve already snagged a few of each of these, and they’re currently on the menu for our upcoming movie night. We’ve done popcorn to death, and I think it’s time to try something new. If you’re in the mood for something new, too, why not try a delicious, nutritious pizza from the Atkins diet menu?

Chrysa says
I love pizza! I would have a HARD time ever giving it up. It’s nice to see that people following Atkins don’t have to.
Amy Desrosiers says
Very cool to know this is now an Atkins approved meal! Back then, Atkins was so restrictive and now there is so much to eat!
Jeannette says
Yum! Any diet that has pizza on it is great by me! I try to keep some food in my freezer for when I’m in a pinch and this will be a great addition!
Rosey says
I love when pizza is included on a diet. That’s the one food I hate to live without. 🙂

Yes, pizza is favorite in our house also. I almost always have some in the freezer.
Mary says
I have to confess. Right now our freezer is loaded with these. My husband hit a sale and stocked up. They really are that good.
