Problem with Brok's low carb pizza!!

It is delicious, I love it so much.... Here is my problem, I tend to eat the WHOLE THING!!!  Ok, that's all I wanted to say.  

PS - If you haven't tried it I highly recommend it.  I put everything on it.  Tons of pizza sauce, sauteed veggies, pineapple... I cannot believe something so good can be so good for me.

From Brok:
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded 
4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded 
3 eggs 
1 teaspoon garlic powder 
1 teaspoon basil, optional 
Toppings of your choice *

Mix the cheeses, eggs, garlic powder and basil well. Line a 16-inch pizza pan with parchment paper or nonstick foil. Evenly spread the cheese mixture in the pan, almost to the edge, making it as thin as possible. Bake at 450º 15-20 minutes until golden brown. I suggest checking it after about 10 minutes. If it's getting very dark on the edges and top, turn the oven down to 400º and continue baking until brown all over and no longer pale on the bottom. Pat off any excess grease then add your toppings. Keeping the oven rack in the center position, put the pizza under the broiler until the toppings are hot and any cheese you added is melted and bubbly, about 4-5 minutes.

Makes 8 servings 
Can be frozen

* You may want to sauté your mushrooms, peppers and other vegetable toppings before using because the pizza will only be baked briefly with the toppings on. I also recommend pre-warming any meat toppings as well. I put all of my toppings, except the sauce and cheese, in a big skillet and heated them up together.

I was in serious shock, because I wanted pizza forever!  I've tried the low carb crust with the Parmesan cheese, while it was good it doesn't compare to this one.  I did some calculations on the carb and protein stats:

The entire Pizza is:

20g of carbs: for the crust and sauce that I used.  I used a pack of Mozzarella and half pack of cheddar for the crust.

119g of protein: Just in the crust alone!  The whole bag of cheese that I used had 7g of protein per serving.  There were 8 servings in a bag.  That's 56g of protein!  The crust also has 3 eggs which is 6 grams of protein an egg.

So Just the Crust and Sauce alone is 20g of carbs and 119g of protein!  I used Trader Joes Three Cheese Pasta Sauce.  It has the least amount of carbs I've seen per serving!  Only 4g of Net Carbs per 1/2 cup (all I used) and 3g of protein.

What I added to my pizza to make it even higher protein:

Since I don't eat pork, I found this spicy Italian sausage from Kroger.  The entire roll (which I used) is 80g of protein and 4 g of carbs.  I also put 17 turkey pepperoni on there which was another 9g and a serving of turkey bacon which was 2g of protein.  So the toppings in itself added another 106g of protein!

So The entire Pizza was 24g of Carbs and 228g of protein!

So divide that into 8 Slices that is 3g of carbs per slice.
And 28.5g of protein per slice!  I will take that any day!...lol!

yum!  I have yet to try this one...need to!  :)  thanks for the break downs of the values too!  :)  

Couldn't agree more Kristi!  I hugged Brok at least twice to say thanks yesterday at Lori's.  One variation you may want to try -- if you swap out the shredded mozzarella for a four cheese Italian blend (mozz, provolone, asiago, parmesan) it is even more fabulous.  Sargento and Kroger both have the blend available in shredded form.

Deb-

It's actually the cheese, eggs and seasnings together that make the crust! 

This is also great for anyone who has become super lactose intolerant after the DS!

WE have a take'n bake place where I live called Papa Murphy's, they have a 1005 whole wheat crust, but Brok's pizza crust beats theirs, HANDS DOWN!!!!

 I will NEVER eat bread pizza crust again!

 Sounds awesome!  Can you tell me which low carb crust you use?
Thanks,
Missy 

Hey Missy -- the cheese is the crust.  It actually has a really bready feel to it,

 No way!  I was wondering if I was missing something when I saw "Crust".  That's awesome that it's actually only the cheese!  I can't wait to give this a try!

The cheese makes the crust, I believe.  It sounds wonderful, I am gonna head to Sam's today and buy a crazy amount of cheese.  LOL.

You make the crust with the cheeses, as you read through the post you can se how it is made, its really yummy

 Thanks Kristi....I couldn't figure out if that became the crust or you put that on top of some low carb crust or what, but now that everyone has straightened me out I'm ready to try it!  (Can you tell I don't know how to cook!?!??!)
