Serves: 1

Per serving: 550 calories, 48 g protein, 6 g carbohydrates, 38 g fat

Ingredients

Mozzarella Cheese - 1 cup

Pepperoni - 2 oz.

Herbs - Basil or parsley - for garnish

Safflower Oil - 1 teaspoon

Pizza Sauce - Rao's Pizza Sauce works great - sauce the pizza based on how much you like

Directions:

Get a medium or large skillet depending on how much you are making.

Turn on heat to medium - add oil.

Sprinkle cheese throughout the pan so that it is evenly distributed. Make sure that the entire bottom of the pan is coated in cheese, this is going to be your crust.

Let the cheese start to bubble.

Add pizza sauce and toppings. Based on your macros, you could even add more cheese.

Try to check the edges to make sure that the cheese is not sticking to the pan. You can slowly pick away at the edges of the crust and that should loosen it.

Let the crust get dark brown to almost black. It will look pretty dark but will taste delicious! Garnish with herbs!
