Meetza Meetza

Although it's a lot more 'Primal' then 'Paleo'  this concoction is something that's going to be on the menu a lot - especially on the weekends when I have a tendency to miss our traditional 'Junk Food Evening'.

The original idea came from something from the old original Atkins book.  I don't have that book anymore but it at least gave me idea that it could be done.  So, here's my own...


  • 1.5 lbs ground  beef
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 T Italian spices divided
  • Salt
  • 1 Cup shredded cheese
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • pizza toppings


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Lightly brown the beef breaking up any chunks - do not over brown some pink is ok as this will continue to cook in the oven.
  3. Drain the excess fat from the meat and mix with eggs, 1 T Italian spices and salt
  4. Spread meat mixture evenly over the bottom of a deep dish pizza pan (I use a cast iron skillet)
  5. Pour tomato sauce over top of the meat, spread evenly and sprinkle remaining Italian spices over the top
  6. Spread cheese evenly over the top and then add the pizza toppings of your choice
  7. Place in oven and cook for 15 minutes
  8. After removing from the oven, you'll want to let it rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!!

  1. Just found this recipe. I've made a "Meetza" before and I'm back into the Paleo/Primal eating and CrossFit. This is on the menu for tomorrow!
