Low Carb Meatza
If you are craving all your favorite pizza toppings but avoiding the carbs, then a meatza is the perfect vehicle for all those pizza flavors.
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 390 degrees Fahrenheit and line a shallow oven tray with baking paper.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the peppers and onions and fry gently until tender and caramelised – around 15/20 minutes.
Step 3
While the peppers are cooking, add the ground beef, garlic powder, egg and parmesan to a large mixing bowl. Season well.
Step 4
Combine the mixture thoroughly with your hands and transfer to the lined tray. Press into a large circle about 1cm thick to form the base.
Step 5
Transfer to the oven to bake for 15 minutes, remove and drain off any excess liquid.
Step 6
While the base is cooking you can make the sauce. Add the passata, balsamic, oregano and dried basil to a medium saucepan.
Step 7
Bring to the boil gently and reduce to a simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently until thickened.
Step 8
Spoon the sauce evenly over the meatza base and top with torn mozzarella chunks.
Step 9
Arrange the pepper and onion pieces over the top of the mozzarella.
Step 10
Return to the oven for a further 12-15 minutes until the meat is piping hot and cooked through and the cheese is melted. Scatter with fresh basil to serve.
