Pepperoni Pizza


You read that correctly, people! Low-carb pizza! There are a lot of blogs with different Atkins-friendly pizza recipes. The one at Your Lighter Side is my favorite! This pizza is Induction Friendly :)

Makes 8 slices or 4 (2-serving) Pizzas 

Ingredients
Easy Pizza Crust Recipe
20 slices of pepperoni
1/2 C canned tomato sauce (plain, no sugar added)
1/2 C mozzarella cheese 
1/2 C cheddar cheese 

Instructions
1. Follow the instructions to make the crust recipe. 
Note: To help the "dough" come together better, microwave the crust ingredients for 30-45 seconds. This will help them form better. Also, a fellow Atkin-er gave me the tip of making mini-pizzas. Divide your crust recipe in 4, and make 4 small pizzas. The crusts freeze well, too!
2. After baking the crust, add the sauce, cheese, and pepperoni. Bake for another 5 -7 minutes. 
3. Let the pizza sit for about 5 minutes before slicing.
