    Freaking wonderful lol!!

    You know, there's SO much good information out there...it's hard to take it all in. I've got a favorites list of sites I've meant to 'read into' ten miles long...and 95% of them I've never seen again.

    /sigh...thanks for bringing this to my attention lol...looks like dinner for tomorrow night =D.

    Made it for dinner tonight...holy CRAP that stuff's filling! Tasty too...though I made mine a bit more like traditional pizza with mozarella, onions, bell peppers, olives, and mushrooms lol.

    Still only 297cal, 3g carbs, 16g fat, 30 protien, 268 sodium, and 1g fiber lol =p.

    I'm going to use a bigger pan next time so the hamburger can be thinner lol...it's literally like covering a double quarter pounder's worth of meat with pizza toppings...and eating it.

    REALLY good...but a bit over powering at 1/2"-3/4" thick lol.

    LOL, that's intense mate! Mine was about 1/2" thick I reckon and worked well but I did have mass toppings. My first one was topped with mixed frozen veggies, onions, capsicum and chillies.

    hehe, Depending on cookery skills, it could "look" a bit odd. I eat all sorts of "weird" stuff, well looks weird anyway so just another weird looking dish to most :tongue:

    WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL OF MY LIFE?!

    This stuff is sooooooo good. Just made it for the first time. I prefer it to regular pizza. The "crust" is so flavorful and the Greek-style combonation of ingredients make this whole dish reminiscent of a gyro.

    My crust came out sort of thick, but I like it that way. :)

    I'm trying it again and again with different flavors. What about spicy texas style with cheddar and salsa? Or BBQ chicken (would be a loooot of meat, you could probably eat a smaller piece).

    Yep...there's a million flavors you could do. I'm considering cooking onions into it....topping it with mashed cauliflower and country gravy and serving it like that. Sort of like hamburger steaks =D.

    Ohh...patty melt flavor!

    =D

    Good ideas! Yeah, cooking onions into the base would be awesome!

    I made this for dinner, but used 1lb Ground Turkey and 1lb Turkey Italian Sausage instead of ground beef!!! SO SO SOOO Delish and was under 300 calories for each serving!

    So I did the greek version today :)

    photovs.jpg

    196cals, 4g carbs, 9g fat, 23g protein per slice. Don't think I'll put onion in the base again as I think it makes it fall apart a bit more.
