    that looks really good!!! I have tried that but mine always ends up kind of soft and soggy in the center and reeeaaaal crispy on the outside lol ....not sure what I set the oven at though....prolly rushed it lol

    That does have a tendency to happen. I leave mine in a bit longer and there are also pizza pans with tiny holes in them if one was so inclined. Think they help that issue :)

    Looks yummy, but does the tortilla get crispy?? I've heard of this idea before but just imagine it being all floppy for some reason!

    It will get crispy on the edges and stay a bit softer under the sauce part. I find it's in between chewy and crispy on the bottom and a bit softer on top, similar to other pizza crusts. I suppose you could pre-cook your tortilla a bit if you like a crispier crust :)

    Wow, I was just craving pizza this weekend! I think this would be a totally better way because I can have fun with the kids and not feel guilty about eating it. I think I'll add some chicken, turkey pepperoni or even shrimp (I love seafood pizza).

    Thanks for this post, very helpful :-)

    I like pizza too. I sometimes do the Fat Smash Diet- pizza

    Crust: 1/5 can chickpeas, 1 cup dry oatmeal, 1 egg, tsp olive oil and your favorite fresh herbs and crushed red pepper. Mix all ingredients in a food processor add just a bit of water to loosen the ingredients but maintain doughy consistency. Spread onto a pizza pan (about 10-12 inches around) Bake at 400 deg F until crust looks 'cracked'.

    Toppings: Lay fresh sliced tomatoes across the crust. This will serve as your sauce. I then top it with onions, peppers( red, orange, yellow), mushrooms, broccoli, asparagus, and mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle more herbs and a bit of salt, if you are not watching your sodium. Bake for about 10 minutes or until veggies are tender. YUM!

    Serves 2 at 392 calories per person.

    Though I have to admit, using a tortilla would save a lot of time. Thanks for the suggestion.

    thank you thank you thank you!!!!! Im very new to this . Only my first full week in. I have alot of weight to lose. :blushing: I have been on the sidle lilnes for four years now due to lupus/rhuematoid arthritis/and epilepsy. I could not figure out a way to get this weight off. A nutrion analyst suggestedthis sight to me. And then you come along and offer up a healthy recipe for one of my favorite foods woohoo!!! So thank you very much. You cant imagine how happy i am that i can have pizza again and actually feel good about it.

    Glad that I could be of some help :) I'm pretty new here myself but I have been using this trick for awhile after my mom was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. Had to find healthier ways for us to eat. She has lost 65 lbs and now I am finally getting my butt in gear 100% too. *high five* Best of luck to you in your journey!
