Meat Crust Pizza - South Beach Diet Recipe (Phase 1)

Brown about 2 pound of extra lean ground beef. Preheat oven to 350 Put beef in a large bowl & mix well with 2 cups of Lf mozzarella cheese.

Spread mixture out like a pizza crust on a cookie sheet or a baking stone. Put 1 cup pizza sauce on the mixture. Ragu is ok.(any pizza sauce with no sugar in it) Top with 1-2 cups of Lf shredded mozzarella.

Top with canadian bacon and or low fat pepperoni slices I usually just use the canadian bacon (optional onions, peppers, anything legal that you like on pizza's.) Cook 15 min. or so (when top cheese starts to brown it is done.) Put foil on rack below to catch any drippings.

How many servings, please? I'll run this through Mastercook or Fitday to get the nutritional breakdown when I get some free time.
Thanks for posting this.

Ruthxxx - 'm not sure I stumbled upon this recipe browsing the web to plan my week two menu. I read somewhere on here on one of the boards someone was looking for something to substitute for pizza but could not find that thread. loll so instead I just posted it here. I am going to try it and am going to assume as if I had pizza before, 1 to 2 slices? Which would make it 4 servings. I'll research though and see what I can find!

Well, the meat alone for 1/4 of the pizza is 625 calories and 50 grams of fat so......
It looke to me like an Atkins recipe, not South Beach.
