Cheeseburger Pizza Carnivore Style

Cheeseburger Pizza Carnivore Style

Ingredients:

For the Meat Crust:

• 1 lb (450g) ground beef (preferably 80% lean)
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Cheeseburger Pizza Topping:

• 1/2 lb (225g) ground beef (for the topping)
• 1/4 cup diced onions (optional, if you eat onions on a carnivore diet)
• 1/4 cup sugar-free ketchup
• 1 tablespoon mustard (optional)
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 4-6 slices of bacon (cooked and crumbled)
• Pickles (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Make the Meat Crust:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, egg, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a pizza stone. Form the beef mixture into a pizza crust shape on the parchment paper. Press it down evenly to about 1/2 inch thick.
4. Bake the meat crust for 15-20 minutes or until it is golden and crispy around the edges. Remove it from the oven.

2. Prepare the Cheeseburger Pizza Toppings:

1. While the meat crust is baking, cook the ground beef for the topping in a skillet over medium heat until browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
2. If using onions, sauté them in the same skillet with the ground beef until they’re softened (optional, depending on your carnivore preferences).
3. Once the beef is fully cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and drain any excess fat.
4. Mix in the sugar-free ketchup and mustard to the beef mixture, giving it a burger-like flavor. Set aside.

3. Assemble the Pizza:

1. Once the meat crust is cooked, spread the beef mixture (from step 2) evenly over the crust.
2. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top.
3. Add crumbled bacon over the cheese (optional but adds great flavor).
4. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

4. Serve and Garnish:

1. Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
2. Slice it up and serve. If you want, you can garnish it with pickles for an extra cheeseburger touch (optional based on your preferences).

Notes:

• If you are following a strict carnivore diet, skip the ketchup, mustard, and onions.
• You can also add other carnivore-friendly toppings, such as extra cheese, sausage, or pepperoni.

This Cheeseburger Pizza Carnivore Style is rich, savory, and satisfying. It’s a great way to indulge in a pizza craving while keeping things aligned with a carnivore diet! Enjoy!
