Low Carb Pizza

Olivia and I made this the other night and it was wonderful.  Almost no carbs since there is no bread.  I used low fat cheeses to save calories there too.  I would not eat this every day, you will be surprised how close it comes to real pizza.  Olivia 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 (2% mozzarella, romano, parm mix - or your choice) 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

 

Top with:

 

1/4 cup low sugar or sugar free pizza sauce 1 cup shredded mozzarella pizza toppings of your choosing (Olivia used pepperoni and sausage)

 

(I like "white pizza" so I used garlic, fresh spinach, chunks of portabella, shrimp and fake crabmeat.) 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.

 

(We used two round cake pans) 2) Put 2-cups pizza cheese 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!!!!

Dawn, that sounds great. I am going to print this and Dave and I will try it.  I totally forgot to try your one salad when I was at your house that had the blue berrys in it. I think that is what you said was in it or was it strawberrys? Could you post that? Chris
