Egg White - Crusted Pizza

Hi-Ya !

Eggs and Pizza....Hmmm ! Who woulda thought healthy, right ?

This pizza is low-carb because the crust is made of EGG!!  I like to eat eggs, but your regular ol' plate of scramble eggs can get a little boring.  I tend to eat this egg-crusted pizza for breakfast, lunch or dinner.  I think this will be one of your "go-to" meals.  It is definitely one of mine !

About 10 years ago I jumped on the fad diet wagon and began The South Beach Diet (SBD).
South Beach Diet emphasizes on eating high-fiber, low-glycemic carbs, unsaturated fats, and lean protein. The early 2000's there were a lot of fad diets on the horizon and yes, I've tried quite a few, but SBD worked for me and although I don't follow the plan verbatim today - the things I learned are instilled within, therefore some of my healthier ME choices today are adopted from the plan.

Fast  forward.....

This recipe was inspired by Egg Crusted Breakfast Pizza at Kalyn's Kitchen, a food blogger I've been following for years.

Egg White-Crusted Pizza 

You can use Egg whites or whole eggs ( Real Talk: I change up from time to time ! )

The toppings you can use are endless ! (see list below) #TryNewThings

A key component to the success of your pizza is a 8-inch non-stick omelet pan that can go from stove-top to oven (I use a Calphalon pan)

Ingredients
Serving 1

• 6 Tbsp of liquid egg whites (equivalent to 2 egg whites) 
• 1-2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
• ¼ cup of low-fat mozzarella shredded cheese
• 1 Handful of organic baby spinach, wilted
• 8-10 Hormel turkey pepperoni slices (cut in halves)
• ½ garlic clove, crushed
• 1-2 small whole fresh mushrooms, chopped
• 1 tbsp of sliced black olives, chopped
• 1 tbsp of green peppers, diced
• 1 tbsp of white onions, diced
• Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herb seasoning, to taste (approx. ½ tsp)'

Other ingredints I've used 

Whole eggs

Grape tomatoes

Feta

Kale

Roasted red peppers

Ground turkey sausage

Crumbled turkey bacon

Grilled chicken

.....endless toppings !!

Instructions

1. Add EVOO and crushed garlic to a hot non-stick pan. Give spinach a quick toss until wilted. Set aside.
2. Scrambled your eggs in a small bowl and add seasonings.
3. Pour eggs in heated 8-inch non-stick oiled pan and cook on low-medium heat until egg is almost set.
4. Then add your ingredients: add ½ your cheese, then all the other toppings and then top of with rest of cheese (Be sure to have a plethora of cheese on top even if you have to use more outside what was stated in the recipe ingredients - Its Cheese Already !!!)
5. Cover the pan with a top and cook about 2-4 minutes until eggs are not quite completely set and cheese is melting.
6. Stick pan under oven broiler…when cheese is nice and gooey its ready to enjoy (about 2-3 minutes)
