Servings: 2
Calories: 373kcal
Ingredients
- 1 large low carb tortilla or low carb flatbread
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
My suggested toppings - use what you like
- ¼ pound Italian sausage browned
- ¼ cup green pepper chopped
- ¼ onion Chopped medium size
- 18 pieces pepperoni
- 2 tablespoons premade pizza sauce I like Ragu Sweet Basil
- ½ cup mozzarella shredded
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425° conventional or 450° conventional with the pizza stone on a center rack.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 teaspoons of oil. Brown the flatbread/tortilla on both sides slightly. You are just firming it up to keep it from falling apart with the sauce and ingredients.
- Spoon on 2 tablespoons pre-made pizza sauce on the crust and spread. I add another ingredient in the following order: sausage, onion, 12 pieces of pepperoni, green pepper, mozzarella, and top off with your last 6 pieces of pepperoni.
- Transfer to the pizza stone. This will cook rapidly for about 10 minutes.
Notes
Pro Tips:
- I generally eat a whole one of these, but some look at it as two servings. So nutrition says two serving on one of these. You can double the number if you consider the whole thing one serving.
- Obviously, nutrition varies completely by ingredients.
- The pizza stone helps a lot.
- Use the flatbread if you can find it. It is thicker and will remind you more of a thin crust pizza.
- DO NOT skip the browning step.
- I suggest making the ingredients up ahead, but the "crust" will be soggy and fall apart if you try to store a cooked one of these.
Variation: Four Cheese White Chicken Pizza - You should try this one.
Just a change in toppings: Eliminate Italian sausage, green pepper, pepperoni, and pizza sauce. New ingredients:1 tablespoon butter
½ tsp garlic powder
½ cup diced chicken
1-2 oz each of feta, white cheddar, mozzarella, and shredded parmesan
1 Plum tomato - thinly sliced (about ¼ inch)
Instructions:
1) Melt 1 tablespoon butter and add ½ tsp garlic powder. Spread over the crust like sauce.
2) Now add the topping: ½ cup of diced chicken, thinly sliced plum tomato (about ¼ inch), 2 oz each of feta, white cheddar, mozzarella, and shredded parmesan.
