MEAT CRUST - PIZZA

MEAT CRUST - PIZZA Recipe By : Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : 0-5G Low Carb Pizza Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- ---CRUST--- 3 lb ground beef -- 1.5kg 3 eggs 1 onion -- finely chopped (or substitute dried onion chips) 2 cl garlic -- finely chopped (or substitute garlic powder) 1 tbsp salt 3/4 tsp black pepper 3/4 tsp fennel seed ---FILLING--- 2 1/4 cups plum tomatoes -- drained and chopped 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper 1 tsp oregano 1 tsp basil salt and pepper -- to taste ---TOPPING--- 1/2 lb mozzarella cheese sausage or pepperoni oregano 3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese Preheat oven to 375. Mix together crust ingredients. Separate into 2 pieces and flatten them onto cookie sheets. They will be about 1/2" thick when you are done. Bake for 30 min; pour off any fat that may have collected. Meanwhile, mix together the filling ingredients. Spread over both crusts. Put your toppping ingredients on and put back in the oven for about 15 min. I made this today and realized I had not tomatoes when the crust was in the oven. I made a quick sauce using tomato sauce, basil, oregano, seasoned salt, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. I didn't simmer it long and didn't use very much and the pizza was better than the above recipe. I don't use commercial sauce because they put lots of corn syrup in. But tomato sauce from a can has only 4g in 1/4c. Enjoy.

This definately sounds worth trying. A little confused, though. The filling, listed above, goes right on top of the meat crust? ok, then when you said you made a quick sauce using tomato sauce....., what did you do with that sauce after it simmered? If you can't tell, I have never attempted to make any kind of pizza
