INSTRUCTIONS

Who Knew Ground Turkey could be a delicious gluten free pizza crust? Use your favorite pizza toppings for an easy low carb dinner.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a large bowl mix turkey, egg, parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, pepper and Italian seasonings.

Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Form the Turkey into a pizza (rectangle, think deep dish). Make it thin so it won't taste too meaty.

Bake for 20 minutes. Times will vary depending on how thin you make the crust.

Take it out of the oven and cover with sauce and then cheese.

Add your favorite toppings!

Toss it back in the oven for 5-10 minutes! I then turned on the broil for just a minute to finish it up but that is completely optional!

WHAT WE USED:

Pictured for our pizza - half turkey pepperoni and sausage half Greek Feta cheese, roasted red peppers, Kalamata black olives; Spinach on the whole thing ( I tossed it in a little spicy pizza oil from Williams Sonoma ) Think: Olive oil, red pepper flakes, garlic.

Tips:

The thinner the turkey crust the less time it takes to cook. So check on it to make sure it is cooked but not browned.

If you are Keto/Low Carb

For a relatively low carb sauce I like Rao's or Slap Yo Mama! You can use whatever you want but if you are counting carbs, check because tomato sauces can have a lot of sugar in them.

As for the rest of your toppings, try to stick to meats and low carb vegetables.
