Low Carb Pizza Recipe
I tried this Pizza recipe the other night and it was wonderful. It has almost no carbs since there is no bread for crust. I split the crust receipe into 2 cake pans. My 11 year old daughter made a traditional pizza with pizza sauce, pepperoni and sausage. I like "white" pizza, so I made mine with chopped garlic, fresh spinach, portabellas, shrimp and fake crab meat. It was very yummy and my cake pan made 4 pieces, I had one for lunch yesterday and have 2 left. She ate 2 that evening and the other 2 for lunch and she loved it!
The cheese forms kind of a crispy "pizza" crust.
Deep Dish Quiche Pizza
4 servings (I got 8 out of mine)
Crust Ingredients:
4 ounces cream cheese (I used low fat)
Three eggs
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon oregano
2 cups shredded Italian cheese (mozzarella, romano, parm mix - or your choice--I used 2%)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Top with:
1/4 cup low sugar or sugar free pizza sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella (2%)
pizza toppings of your choosing
Preparation Method:
1) Beat cream cheese and eggs until smooth. Add cream, parmesan and spice. Spray 13 x 9-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
2) Put 2-cups Italian cheeses in dish and pour egg mixture over. "Squish" around to mix. Bake at 375-degrees for 30-40 minutes until well browned.
3) Remove from oven and cool for about 5 min. Spread on pizza sauce, sprinkle on mozzarella, and layer with toppings.
4) Bake about ten minutes in 375-degree oven until the toppings are bubbly and brown.
(It took longer for the two to bake, almost 15 minutes, and they were not browned.)
Enjoy!!
