When I make pizza for Beckett, I normally eat the toppings off of 1 or 2 slices to keep away from the carbs, but I always feel bad throwing out the bread out. For lunch today I made pizza for him, but in a small, separate glass pie plate I layered some toppings to make a low carb, keto friendly casserole.
Depending on the size of the casserole dish, you can use whatever amounts of toppings desired.
I made Beckett's pizza then what I had left I layered in my dish.
What I used:
Rao's pizza sauce (I used one small jar but if you're doing a larger casserole you'll need 2)
I tube of Jimmy Dean Sausage
Pepperoni
Sliced Black Olives
Baby Bella Mushrooms
Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1 Tbsp. Oregano
1 Tsp. Garlic Powder
~Brown sausage in a pan, rinse, drain and set aside.
~Saute mushrooms along with oregano and garlic powder and set aside.
Mix together sausage and pizza sauce and layer the bottom of a casserole dish. Sprinkle a layer of mozzarella, then a layer of mushrooms, repeat another layer of cheese, then top off with black olives and pepperoni.
Bake at 400 for about 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted and starts to brown.
This dish can easily be changed up so many ways. There are so many options. Next time I may use fresh mozzarella slices or add in some sauteed onion and chopped bell pepper.
The sky is the limit with this easy low carb option. Make it your own!
