Made this last night. My absolute new favorite pizza crust. It is crispy and crunchy and yummy to boot.
If you miss thin and crispy pizza crust, try this.

I've been meaning to post that Angie. Just hadn't gotten around to it yet. I made it last week. DH & I really enjoyed it.
Well, I actually didn't make the pizza toppings the same. You can change those up to suit your pizza topping preferences & what you have on hand.
I was cooking it in my NEW toaster/pizza oven which has a 12" pan, so I had to adjust the crust recipe. I used 2 cups cheese and 2 eggs. I was gonna use half moz cheese & half cheddar/jack, but I only had a small amount of the cheddar/jack on hand. Was almost out. So I put that in my measuring cup, and used the rest Mozzarella. Next time I'll use more of the cheddar/jack.
I browned 1/2 pound hamburger and a few oz of Jimmy Dean's sausage, adding some onion toward the end. I made pizza sauce using a can of tomato sauce (no sugar added of course) and Italian seasoning. Spread a small amount of that on the crust. Then the burger/sausage, added mushrooms & pepperoni. I sprinkled a small amount of Moz cheese over that (meant to put it on before the meats and other toppings, but forgot it). It didn't need a lot of extra cheese because of the cheese crust.
We're not huge pizza fans, but like it once in a while. This was very good. Will do it again one of these days.
This was created by NancyElle from another low carb site. She also has a chewy crust version if you prefer a chewier crust. Not sure if LindaSue has it on her site or not. _________________ Billie

Hey Billie,
This is a winner, isn't it? I'm a pizza purist...I like sauce, cheese and pepperoni. Don't bother me with anything else. Boy was this one good!

| Angie, I want to try this one. How do the leftovers do? Will it stay crisp or can you crisp it up again? Donna |

Ummmmm.....er....ehhhhh....hmmmm.....leftovers??
Seriously, though, I didn't have any. Pizza is a major portion control issue with me so I cut down all the ingredients to make a personal pizza size. So I can't help with the leftover question! Though I don't know if it would stay crispy, I think it would be fine either way because the crust is just plain tasty!

Here's the recipe I used (posted by NoSugarGrams at LCF)~click on link for pix.
http://www.lowcarbfriends.com/bbs/lowcarb-recipe-help-suggestions/549376-thin-crispy-pizza-crust-easiest-ever-pics-included-4.html
OK, after many attempts to get this right for one serving, I think I have it!!
Pictures at the end!
This was so good, and filling. I made a few tweaks....
This is what I did.......
Pizza for one person
I used a 2 c. Pyrex measuring cup, but only filled the cheese to the 1 cup line, that gave me room to mix everything else.
1/2 c. of mozzarella cheese
2 T. of grated Parmesan cheese
couple of grabs of sharp cheddar to take it to the one cup line
sprinkle of garlic powder, basil, and oregano
1 egg and beat this all together well with a spoon.
I spread this in a well greased corning-ware 9 inch pie plate.
Topped this with my 14 pepperoni. This is one serving per/pkg.
Baked at 450 degrees for 10 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes.
While cooling, I spooned out 4 T. of Ragu and nuked 40 seconds or so till hot.
I used the sauce as a dip and my oh my...........it was delicious!!!
Enjoy!!!
My estimation for the carbs is...
Cheese - 1 c. = 4 carbs
1 egg = 1 carb
1/4 c. Ragu = 4.5 carbs
Total = 9.5 Carbs _________________ Angie

Yes Angie, It's really very good. But I did NOT use Parmesan cheese. YUCK can't stand that stuff. So I did use a little different reicpe than you.
But I do think when I do make/have pizza it will be using this crust (not the parm one ).
Leftovers like Angie said there were no leftovers. As I said I made a 12" pizza. I think I had 3 pieces, and my DH ate the rest. _________________ Billie

| Thanks, Angie, for the single recipe. I don't need to eat the whole thing myself at one sitting and there is no one with whom to share it. I'm glad they have to count with it, also. Donna |

Here's a picture of my personal pizza! Of course you may want to get more creative with your toppings. I like plain 'ol pepperoni though. I tried to lift it up so you can see that you can pick it up if you want. See the trouble I go through for my fellow SS-ers??

| I tried this for lunch today. I was easy and delicious. I will be using it again and it really satisfies that pizza need. It tastes like it has a really thin bread crust. Love it! Donna |
