Flaxseed meal is another one of my favorite ingredient replacers, as it has 1 net carb per serving. Little secret: the above pizza is actually vegetarian (using Morning Star sausage and bacon)...though you probably have figured out that I am not vegetarian (if you saw my steak post...). I love pizza more than any other food in the entire world, but clearly can't order Papa John's when on a low-carb diet. After much experimentation, here is the recipe I came up with:
Ingredients: 1.25 cups flaxseed meal (I use Bob's Red Mill brand) 1/4 cup pea protein (this is optional. You can instead use a full 2 cups of flaxseed meal) 1 tsp salt 1.5 tsp baking powder 2 whole eggs +2 egg whites 1/4 cup oil Water, as needed Directions: Combine all the dry ingredients. Beat the wet ingredients together and add to the dry ingredients. Add water until you get the desired consistency (will be approximately 1/2 cup depending on use of pea protein). Press the dough into a pan and cook for 10-15 minutes at 425 F. Add desired topping and cook until toppings are done (5-15 mn). 6 servings with the following nutrition: 322 calories, 26 g fat, 14g carbs, 13.5g fiber, .5g net carbs, 15.9g protein
