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
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- 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.
- Drain the excess fat from the meat and mix with eggs, 1 T Italian spices and salt
- Spread meat mixture evenly over the bottom of a deep dish pizza pan (I use a cast iron skillet)
- Pour tomato sauce over top of the meat, spread evenly and sprinkle remaining Italian spices over the top
- Spread cheese evenly over the top and then add the pizza toppings of your choice
- Place in oven and cook for 15 minutes
- After removing from the oven, you'll want to let it rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!!
