    'I know this egg-based crust is going to sound strange, but I urge you to trust me and try this. I've tried a whole lot of low-carb pizza crusts over the years, and this is really the best one. No, it isn't like regular, but it's really good. I got the recipe on which this is based from the Protein Power Forum, and have altered it somewhat.'

    'Based on some of the comments, I'm now realizing that some people are expecting a crisp crust, or a thin crust. This crust is neither crisp nor thin. However, you can make it thinner by using fewer eggs and less cream cheese.'
    Ingredients:

    6 eggs
    6 oz cream cheese (3/4 package) at room temperature
    1 teaspoon garlic powder
    1½ teaspoon oregano or other Italian seasoning
    ½ teaspoon salt
    pinches of black and/or cayenne pepper
    1 cup (or a little more) shredded Italian cheeses, at least half of which is a hard cheese (Parmesan, Assagio)
    Preparation:

    Heat the oven to 350° F.
    1) Be sure the cream cheese is at about room temperature. Using a regular blender, food processor, or (my preferred) stick blender, mix the egg and cream cheese until well blended. Add the salt and spices and blend again.

    2) Spread cheese in bottom of well-buttered 9X13 pan. I often use an Italian blend such as Trader Joe's Quattro Formaggio. Pour egg mixture over the cheese, and bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the top is browning.

    3) Remove from oven, add pizza toppings, and bake until done - about another 10-15 minutes.

    Makes 8 servings.

    Nutritional Information: Each serving has 1.5 grams effective carbohydrate plus 11 grams protein, and 179 calories.

    Made the No Crust Pizza last night and it was amazing! Not as good as my cauliflower pizza I make, but it took less time which was really nice.

    Isn't that container of cream cheese a TON of calories?

    Yes, this pizza is basically a cheesecake...
    Combining pizza and cheesecake???

    WIN!

    Are you serious? You can't find it on here already? The cauliflower police need to visit you obviously.

    My mum was doing low carb when I was a teen and she would make "meatza". Basically you make a meatloaf mix, spread it over the bottom of a pan, bake it, then top it like it was a pizza. It was the dogs bollocks.

    Does "dogs bollocks" mean bad or good? Not that I want to try "meatza"....

    NO DOUGH PIZZA!!!!!!! This one is a WINNER!!!!
    Gluten Free, Low Carb, Diabetic Friendly!!!!!!
    For when you absolutely want pizza but not all the carbs!!!!!!!

    Crust
    1 (8 oz) package of full fat cream cheese, room temperature
    2 eggs
    1/4 tsp ground black pepper
    1 tsp garlic powder
    1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

    Topping
    1/2 cup pizza sauce
    1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
    toppings - pepperoni, ham, sausage, mushrooms, peppers
    Garlic powder

    Preheat oven to 350.

    Lightly spay a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray. With a handheld mixer, mix cream cheese, eggs, pepper, garlic powder and parmesan cheese until combined. Spread into baking dish. Bake for 12-15 minutes, our until golden brown. Allow crust to cool for 10 minutes.

    Spread pizza sauce on crust. Top with cheese and toppings. Sprinkle pizza with garlic powder. Bake 8-10 minutes, until cheese is melted.


    Have not tried this yet but it sure looks delicious.

    Yeah, I'm not sure if that means it was good or bad either, although a deflated meatball covered in sauce and cheese doesn't sound bad to me.

    So it's pretty much a flattened pizza cheese ball. That's... not an inherently bad idea, actually.

    It's unfortunate that this pizza place closed its doors. They made a zero carb crust that was very good. Maybe someone will purchase their recipe.

    "Dogs Bollocks" is good.
    Actually in Ireland it can mean both good or bad depending on how it is used.

    "It's the dogs bollox" = good
    "You made a dogs bollox of that" = bad

    Cream cheese and pizza? That sounds a million times better than the cauliflower crust.
