If you don't love pizza then we probably can't be friends. But lets face it, pizza is probably not the best choice when it comes to meal preps & plans. This is why I want you to try a pizza that is high in protein (to put that gym workout into good use & create more muscle) while taking out the excess carbs & sugars, yes sugar, that is in usual white pizza dough.
Ingredients: (based on 2 pizzas/people)
Ingredients: (based on 2 pizzas/people)
- 3 10oz cans of canned chicken
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup grated or shredded Parmesan cheese
- Part-skim shredded mozzarella cheese
- Tomato sauce (check the label!! some have way too much sugar. If you have extra time, make your own tomato sauce)
- Toppings of your choice (load up some veggies!)... I usually go with onions, mushrooms, green/yellow/red peppers, and turkey pepperoni
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Drain the canned chicken (I usually pour into a pasta colander to drain)
- Spray olive oil on baking tray and spread chicken out evenly. Sprinkle some seasoning of choice (I use pepper, garlic powder, and paprika).
- Bake for 10-12 minutes to dry chicken out
- Take chicken out of oven and change temperature to 500 degrees. Place chicken in a mixing bowl and combine with eggs & 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Spray olive oil on baking sheet (you may need 2) and divide up mixture between the baking sheets. Use spatula (or hands) to mush pizza into an even flat circle. Try not to leave dough to thick or too thin.
- Pinch edges of circles to form a crust.
- Bake for 10-12 min at 500 degrees. Crust should feel firm when you remove from oven.
- Remove crust and put tomato sauce, cheese, and toppings on top and bake for another 6-10 minutes at 500 degrees.
- Remove pizza and allow to cool for at least 4-5 minutes before cutting. ENJOY!
