Ingredients
3 Cups Shredded Mozzarella1 Cup Shredded Colby & Monterey Jack Cheese4 eggs1 tsp Garlic Powder1 tsp BasilThis is the basic recipe for the crust - 16" size. I use a 13 x 9 pan for mine.You can use your own mix of cheese - even reduce it by one cup/one egg to make less...I like my crust a bit thicker so I use 4 cups of cheese, 4 eggs, for thinner crust use 3 cups of cheese and 3 eggs. You can also vary the seasonings you use, if you have a favorite blend use it.
Directions
Bake at 450 degrees until browned to desired crispness/doneness

it does not stick to the pan - trust me!

Top with 1/4 cup pizza sauce (more if you like more but if watching carbs, use 1/4 cup); use any mix of meats or other toppings as desired. Once you add the toppings you want (including any additional cheese you want on top) - put under the broiler until the cheese is melted to desired point.

ENJOY!

     Made myself a personal pizza using 1 cup mozerella and 1 egg. Sprayed a frying pan with some pam and made the "crust" over medium-high heat. Worked great and omg so yummy. Perfect for pizza cravings! - 8/7/12

     This is an awesome recipe. It was invented by a great lady on the low carb boards - and there are infinite versions out there. I make mine with 2 cups cheddar/1 cup mozzarella/3 eggs and with oregano instead of basil, plus a little flax - 2 tablespoons - to hold it together better. YUM! - 4/30/10

     Tasty! I'll admit - I was skeptical, but it definitely made a great crust! I've been craving pizza, and this was the perfect carb-substitute. I did lightly spray the pan, however. - 8/9/11

     This was delicious! I would recommend using non-stick cooking spray though.. - 5/23/11

     Really good and satisfying. I line the pan with parchment and it just lifts off. I also cook 5 minutes more (for a crispier bite), cut it up and have crackers! This is my new staple for lo carb. Thank you. - 1/31/13

     I thought it tasted great. Good choice for my boyfriend with diabetes. - 11/30/12

     I couldn't believe how good this was. My husband was completely skeptical beforehand that this would be a good crust, and he LOVED it! I'm diabetic, and it was SO nice to be able to have 2 pieces of pizza without worrying about all the carbs. It was absolutely delicious! - 6/23/14

     Wondering if this can be made with just the egg whites instead of whole eggs to reduce the cholesterol? - 1/26/12

     This is a keeper! I love that I have all the ingredients in my house at all times. When not following low carb I use to make a crust my family has been making for years and it was always a go to on nights when no supper was planned and no meat was in the house. I can still do it now with this one. - 4/2/13

     Holy Cheese! Great recipe. My wife and I have diabetes and we love pizza. This will be a regular fare for us. We concocted our own toppings and two pieces each of the 8 total satisfied our appetites (which were enormous at the time because we had just finished our workout at the YMCA). - 1/14/13

     This was awesome...hubby and I are doing the Belly Fat cure and this fit in wonderfully. I used 1 cup mozz and 2 cups cheddar cheese with 3 eggs....meant to add flaxseed...will do that next time. - 1/27/12

     Excellent. Spray the pan though ;) - 6/2/11
  • FUN4HAVIN
     This was pretty good. Next time I need to put more sauce on the crust. I will definately try again. - 11/12/10

     I have one major question here.... what do I do with the ingredients after I get them? You list the ingredients, and the temp to bake them at, but not what to do inbetween. - 5/11/10

     I tried a small one with totally fat free cheddar and fat free mozarella. I added a sprinkle of garlic powder and italian herb seasoning. Used my small teflon fry pan but did spray first. 15 minutes and it came out perfectly crisp and slid right out of the pan. I was amazed it tasted so good ! - 4/7/18
