Every so often I crave something other than sweets. Shocking, right? Short story short, my cravings today ended up at a Low Carb Taco Keto Pizza!
Yes, a pizza that has almost no carbs and is super easy to make. No, you’re not dreaming…
Start with a small baking pan lined with some optional parchment paper. The bigger the baking pan, the more cheese you’ll need.
Add in and evenly distribute 2 cups of cheddar cheese (or your choice cheese) over your pan and throw that in the oven on 400F/206C for around 10-12 minutes.
You’ll know your keto pizza crust is done when the top is golden brown.
Remove your keto pizza crust and let it cool four a couple minutes. If you used parchment paper, your crust should come or peel right off.
Keto Toppings
We have our crust and now we need our toppings! Start these by browning 1 pound of a lean ground beef or turkey over medium-high heat.
Once browned, add in 3/4 cup of water, 1 packet of a taco seasoning mix, and a couple tablespoons of some tomato paste to thicken it up.
Mix everything around, turn your burner on low heat, and let it simmer for 5-10 minutes. It should thicken up.
Taco Keto Pizza
Distribute that mix onto your cheese crust followed by whatever ingredients you want. Since I was craving tacos earlier I went with some Mexican cheese, guacamole, sour cream, and salad mix.
If you’re still on a keto pizza kick after this one, try our Cauliflower Pizza next!
