Low Carb Pizza Recipe
Ingredients
- Crust:
- 1 packed cup of cooked, minced chicken breast (I actually baked the chicken until they were a little dry and let them cool completely before mincing them. You can do this ahead of time.)
- 1 cup packed mozzarella, shredded
- Garlic powder - sprinkled this around the crust
- Topping:
- 2 Tbsp of Spaghetti sauce (whatever is your favorite)
- Turkey Pepperoni
- Mozarella shredded (be sure to count the ounces used to configure the total carbs to bolus for if on insulin).
Directions
- 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- 2. Process chicken and cheese together. Mixture will resemble a meal/thick, dense crumb consistency.
- 3. Press slightly over one half of the chicken/cheese mixture into 2-6â³ pie or cake pans (I used cake pans). Make sure the crust comes up to the top of the pan.
- 4. Top with garlic powder.
- 5. Bake for 12 minutes.
- 6. Let cool for five minutes. - Make sure you let it cool! Or else it will be soggy.
- 7. Top with sauce, cheese, and then toppings.
- 8. Top with remaining chicken/cheese crust. Press the edges gently to seal.
- 9. Top with Parmesan sprinkles, if using.
- 10. Bake for 6-8 minutes more, or until golden brown and melted.
- 11. Let cool for five minutes.
- 12. Slice and serve.
