Recipe by Katherine Sacks This simple tomato pizza is inspired by the classic tomato pie made at Trenton, New Jersey, favorite DeLorenzo's, where the guys like to bake it "extra-crispy.

Ingredients

Servings 1

1 (28-ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes (preferably San Marzano)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
8 ounces Food Processor Pizza Dough or prepared pizza dough, room temperature
All-purpose flour (for surface)
5 ounces part-skim milk mozzarella, shredded (about 1 1/2 cups), divided
3/4 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
Crushed red pepper flakes (for serving; optional)

Instructions

Place a rack in lowest position of oven. Set pizza stone or 2 stacked, inverted baking sheets on rack; preheat oven to 500 °F at least 1 hour.
Drain tomatoes in a colander. Crush into small pieces with your hands, drain again, and transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in salt; set aside.
Roll out dough to a 14" circle on lightly floured parchment paper, making sure dough is evenly thin from center to edge; if dough pulls back when rolling, cover with plastic wrap and wait 5 minutes.
Transfer parchment with dough to a pizza peel, large cutting board, or inverted baking sheet. Sprinkle with 1 1/4 cups cheese. Top with tomatoes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese.
Carefully slide parchment with pizza onto hot baking stone. Bake pizza until crust is deep golden brown, 10 –12 minutes.
Transfer pizza to a cutting board and let cool 2 minutes. Drizzle with oil and cut into wedges. Serve with red pepper flakes, if using.

Why this Trenton Tomato Pie Pizza works for PCOS

Evening meals affect overnight insulin and morning blood sugar more than most women realise. Keeping dinner protein-forward and finishing eating at least 2-3 hours before bed gives your body time to clear glucose before the overnight fast, which improves morning fasting insulin readings.
