Carnivore Pizza Recipe (Zero-Carb, Meat-Lovers Delight)

This Carnivore Pizza is the ultimate low-carb, protein-packed, meat-lovers’ dream. It’s a delicious way to enjoy a pizza without the carbs and the traditional dough—perfect for those following a strict carnivore diet. Instead of a traditional crust, the base is made with a rich, meaty foundation that delivers on both flavor and satisfaction. The combination of meats, cheese, and egg makes this a protein-packed meal that you won’t miss the carbs for one second!

Ingredients:

For the Pizza Crust:
- 1 lb ground beef (or ground pork, lamb, or chicken)
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional for extra cheesy crust)
- 1 large egg (binds the meat together)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for flavor)
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Pizza Topping:
- 1/2 lb cooked bacon, chopped (or any other carnivore-friendly meat like sausage or pepperoni)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or your preferred cheese, such as cheddar)
- 1/2 cup pepperoni slices (optional, for a true pizza flavor)
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (optional, for extra flavor)
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil or beef tallow (for greasing the pan)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano (optional, for added Italian flavor)
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure the crust cooks thoroughly and the cheese melts perfectly.

2. Prepare the Meat Crust:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, shredded mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix the ingredients together until well incorporated.
Spread the meat mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or a greased pizza pan, using your hands or a spatula to press it into a round shape. The crust should be about 1/2 inch thick.
Bake the meat crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until it’s golden brown and cooked through. You can check by gently pressing the center of the crust to make sure it’s firm.

3. Prepare the Toppings:

While the crust is baking, prepare your toppings. Chop the cooked bacon into bite-sized pieces and set aside. If using pepperoni, you can slice it and have it ready.
Shred or grate the mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese. You’ll need these for both the crust and the toppings.

4. Assemble the Pizza:

Once the meat crust is fully baked, remove it from the oven. Brush the top of the crust with a little olive oil or beef tallow to add flavor and help with browning.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the crust. Then, layer on the bacon pieces, pepperoni slices, and any other meats or toppings you prefer.
Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top for an extra rich flavor and add a pinch of dried oregano and red pepper flakes if desired.

5. Bake the Pizza:

Place the assembled pizza back into the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. If you like your pizza extra crispy, you can broil it for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. This will help the cheese set and make it easier to cut.
Slice the pizza into wedges and enjoy!

Why This Works for the Carnivore Diet:

High in Protein and Fat: The meat crust is packed with protein and fat from the ground beef and egg. The cheese adds additional protein and healthy fats, keeping you full and satisfied.
Zero Carbs: There’s no traditional pizza dough here, just pure meat and cheese, making this a perfect zero-carb meal for anyone on a carnivore or keto diet.
Customizable: You can choose any meats you prefer for the toppings, whether it’s bacon, sausage, or pepperoni, allowing for endless variations based on your preferences.

This Carnivore Pizza is a great way to indulge in a classic favorite while sticking to a carnivore lifestyle. It’s rich, savory, and satisfying—guaranteed to please both meat lovers and anyone on a low-carb or carnivore diet!
