My recipe same on salt but 3 cups flour.  Use Cento brand crushed
tomatoes at 20mg per 1/4 cup (probably need 1/2 cup sauce for the whole
pizza).  There are other flat breads you can use for the base but not
sure of salt savings except by portion control.  My recipe makes a 14
inch thin crust or a 12 inch medium crust. You'd be best with thin
crust.  8 slices.  Salt load 2,725/8 slices=215mg per slice.  (check my
math, sometimes I do it wrong).

Pizza isn't a low sodium food but it can fit if careful with the
additions.  It won't be a cheese swamp but can't recall if you liked
that.  Mozz is 138mg per ounce.  1 slice would get 69mg cheese if you
used only 4oz for the pie.  Spinach and mushrooms are sodium 'nil' (too
little to matter).  Bell peppers and hot peppers too (watch for brined
hot peppers and check sodium load).  Shrimp fit.
