Tiny deceiving pizza looks normal. /squints

Tastes like pizza too.

[Anarchist Beauty]

I'm still suspicious.

It looks good!

Did you do the cheese crust first and then sprinkle more cheese on it when you put the toppings on it, and put it back in the oven?

[galled]

I make the crust first. Then allow it to cool a bit. Then comes tomato sauce, more cheese and toppings. Then back into the oven. The idea was to cook the crust a bit more than the rest so it becomes firmer--like a dough crust. When it's all done, you have different textures--a crust one and a typical pizza toppings one.

As I said before, it's very much like thin crust pizza if you had that before, however, if you like a lot of crust/dough, it won't be the same. I've made a few with a lot thicker cheese crust, but I haven't tried a really thick one yet. I think it can be done, but it couldn't be super thick (~1/2" seems to be the limit before you can't cook it fast enough to firm it up before burning it).

Again, it's not for everyone, but someone like myself who loves pizza, but can't process carbs, it's like a new lease on life! Life without pizza wouldn't be as much fun IMHO.

[Anarchist Beauty]

Sounds like too much cheese to me.

If you have a problem with lactose or cheese then it wouldn't be a good idea, for sure.. otherwise a cheese lover's dream I would think!

Re: No carb pizza

OK, this is a small one I made tonight in a toaster oven, but you'll get the idea. It's pepperoni, garlic, onion, mushroom, and of course cheese. Probably could have cooked it a minute longer...

wahhh!! pizza!! and those pepperonis look huge in comparison to the entire pizza!!
it actually looks pretty yum hmm

[galled]

lol well it was only 8" or so in size.
pepperoni was typical 2-3"

[Anarchist Beauty]

Large pepperonis are gooood.

[Gingerale]

I like Salami more then I like pepperoni.

[Anarchist Beauty]

I cry, I tried to have leftover pizza from the other day but it was bad. v.v

[Gingerale]

Did you wrap it in plastic wrap or just leave it in the box in the fridge? I find that if you don't wrap it the pizza gets hard as a rock.

A quick way to heat and keep the integrity of the crust is to put it on toast in the toaster oven, comes out oven fresh!

[Anarchist Beauty]

I wrapped it in tin foil.
But it was a few days old, pizza never keeps for me.

[Gingerale]

Ya, a couple days is all pizza seems to last. I don't want to pay for delivery and I don't want to go out to get food or groceries so I am stuck with being creative with whatever is in the cupboard and fridge.
