Wow, this was absolutely great and definitely satisfied my pizza craving.
I'm in Induction right now so I adapted the crust recipe a bit :
4 oz cream cheese
1/3 cup heavy cream
4 eggs
1/4 cup grated parmesan (from 3 oz parmesan)
Teaspoon of garlic powder
Oregano & basil (about a teaspoon each)
Cracked pepper
Basically I skipped the 2 cups of grated cheese in the crust. Baked it 60 minutes at 350 to make sure it was hard enough. Smelled heavenly too!
Made my own sauce with 1/4 cup of diced, canned tomatoes, 1 clove of garlic, spices and 1/4 cup olive oil - everything went into the blender.
This was topped with a grandiose load of 1 cup (12 oz) mozzarella, ground beef, bacon, onions and green peppers and yielded 6 big pieces (about 6"x4" and a good 3" high!). One was enough to satisfy me.
So 12 oz mozzarella / 6 = 2 oz of mozzarella
4 oz of cream cheese / 6 = 2/3 oz of cream cheese
3 oz of parmesan / 6 = 1/2 oz of parmesan
A total of 3 1/3 oz of cheese (my only cheese intake today).
I think this falls within induction guidelines, I'm happy and full - thank you so much for this recipe!
