I was recently explaining the advantages of a low carb diet to a friend when she told me that she didn't think she could stay on a low carb diet because she would miss pizza too much! I couldn't believe she had no idea about the existence of the low carb pizza and how their taste can rival even that of her favorite pizza. Now you can no longer use going without a pizza as an excuse to hide behind in trying to elude going on a low carb diet.
Preparing this healthy yet amazingly tasty pizza will take only a few minutes - 15 minutes, tops - of your time and soon you'll be enjoying it in no time at all. You can have it just like other low carb snacks in the middle of the day or as a fulfilling dinner. It's also easy to take it on the go just like a slice of your usual pizza. You don't even have to spend so much on the ingredients you'll be using, and you can make sure that they're the freshest and best ingredients you can get hold of.
Making low carb pizza involves two components: the base, or what we refer to as the crust, and the sauce. It's just like when you make your other types of pizzas. The sauce and the crust can be prepared in advance, and kept separately, only to be joined together when you're ready to eat it. Make sure the sauce is kept refrigerated and the crust frozen.
The crust is made of two main ingredients: flax seed is ground into flax meal to serve as the flour, while Parmesan cheese adds flavor to the crust and serves as the binder. Preparation of the crusts can be made in large batches; just make sure you store them in a freezer, sealed tight in a ziplock bag, until such time you are ready to prepare your pizza. You don't even have to spend so much time on the sauce and toppings when you don't feel like it because you can eat the crust as is. It will turn into a quick snack when dipped in olive oil and vinegar.
If you go ahead and make the pizza, then definitely make this sauce. Simple though it may be, the flavors are anything but. It would even taste great when used on non-low-carb pizzas! This is a great Italian homemade pizza sauce that you can make in advance and keep fresh in your fridge until you are ready to use it. The sauce ingredients include a variety of herbs, tomato paste, and olive oil. Even a small can of tomato paste will be enough to create pizza sauce for 10 pizzas, maybe more!
And, lastly, there are the toppings. Did you know that most pizza toppings are already low-carb, so you can simply add mozzarella slices and your usual favorites. It won't take so much out of you to just put in some slices of mozzarella and then some pepperoni on top. If you like sausage then put some small chunks of sausage on it. Or how about a more upscale pizza like arugula and prosciutto. The choices are endless!
To cook the pizza, place the pizza into the oven for 10 minutes to cook and voila it's ready to eat. You have to make sure the cheese has melted. It's so easy it barely feels like cooking!
