Low Carb Pizza

When structuring a new lifestyle change, it is important to be able to still enjoy your favorite foods.  When I deny my body/brain of a food I really want, I naturally strike back, but at a three-fold.  Instead of having a grilled cheese sandwich, I would eat three. Instead of one beer, I would have five.

But this disordered way of eating doesn’t have to exist.  Finding a substitute is a great way to combat the binge eating. Luckily, for those of us on a low carb diet, we can still have our “cake” and eat it, too.  My cake (so to speak) happens to be pizza.

A low carb pizza you say? Yes! You can still enjoy pizza on this new way of eating.

Now, I have very specific for a good pizza crust:

• must be able to hold sauce and toppings
• must be seasoned well
• must not contain a million different ingredients

Now, I’ve tried a few different recipes. Coconut flour, almond flour, flax seed, psyllium husk, etc. and they were ok but…

After trying a few different variations of a low carb pizza, I have come to the conclusion that the best one, without a doubt, is the Keto-friendly, no-dough, low-carb pizza crust from Healthy Keto.

This low carb pizza can be topped with all sorts of different toppings.

Want to switch it up? Try topping with these:

• sausage
• chicken
• different herbs and spices (basil, oregano, rosemary, chopped garlic)
• meatballs
• veggies (mushrooms, zucchini, peppers)
• alfredo sauce
• pesto
• garlic butter
• fresh tomatoes

Still have a pizza craving but aren’t in the mood to make an entire low carb pizza?
