So while I watch them make my pizza each time I go in for that slice of heaven, I started paying attention to all the ingredients that went in and I thought, "Hey, I can make this myself at home". Well.....I tried to make it once and realized that I cannot make pizza crust (even the kind that comes in the packet that you just add water and knead it). So I thought my dreams of making my own pizza were done. Then I saw those awesome lo carb tortillas that I had in my fridge and thought, "hmmm fat girl, what about making a mini pizza using those as the crust". And that my friends was the beginning of a beautiful new addiction.
So here's what you need:
1 Lo-Carb Tortilla (I use La Tortilla Factory)
A couple of spoonfuls of Garlic
1/2 cup of Part-Skim Mozzarella cheese
1 oz of chopped chicken breast (I use that deli fresh kind)
1/8 cup of Feta crumbles
A few leaves of spinach
A few pieces of sun dried tomatoes (not in oil)
1. Spoon some garlic on top of your tortilla.....I try to stay about 1/2 away from the edges.
2. Lay down your mozzarella cheese and top with a few spinach leaves. ( I know my pics show spinach then cheese, but after some playing around, I like the spinach on top of the cheese)
3. Next, top with your chicken, feta and sun dried tomatoes.
4. Bake at 400 degrees for about 13-15 minutes (just watch it to make sure it doesn't burn)
And voila! You have a really nice size mini pizza that clocks in at 350 calories & 10 carbs.
You can use lighter cheese or not as many sun dried tomatoes to lower the counts even more if you wish. I also don't use a whole serving of sun dried tomatoes, just a strip or two that I chop into small pieces.
This also goes great with a side salad. I'm gonna say that I probably eat this a few times a week for lunch and we also eat it for dinner every now and again. Very filling and very savory!
Happy eating!
