That looks good. Definately making this tonight. Especially, since I’m spending the morning in the ER!
I made this for the family last night. It disappeared so fast I realized I should have made two. It was so easy!!
great! you are getting me in the mood for it!
whole protien pizza. i use whole wheat crusts.
I found this recipe about two years ago and just had to try it on that week’s Shabbat. The evening was a smash, to say the least. I have since, taken it to work for a lunch surprise (it weighs a lot, so be careful transporting). I even invited a true Texan for dinner and he was in ecstasy with every bite. I have never made it in 8 individuals. I have made two large pies instead and the presentation is always impressive. I serve the pizza with my version of a wedge salad but I replace blue cheese dressing with a chipotle ranch. I also buy a crust from a local pizza shop and roll it out myself if I am in a hurry. It makes for a no-brainer prep and serve. In fact, I am making it for Shabbat tonight. I keep this receipe in my arsenal, not my normal collection.
