Make a structurally sound, zero carb pizza base using only ground beef, egg, and cheese. This meatza crust is perfect for your carnivore diet.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20 recommended)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, shredded mozzarella cheese, and salt. Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands until they are evenly incorporated.
  3. Place the meat mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Press the mixture out evenly into a circle or rectangle, about 1/4 to 1/3 inch thick. This forms your meat crust.
  4. Bake the crust for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are browned and the center is mostly firm. Drain off any excess grease that has rendered out onto the pan.
  5. Remove the crust from the oven. Add your desired carnivore toppings, such as more cheese or cooked meat.
  6. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Slice and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a firmer crust, use a leaner ground beef (90/10) and add one extra tablespoon of cheese.
  • If the crust seems too wet after the first bake, gently blot the surface with paper towels before adding toppings.
  • This recipe makes a great zero carb pizza base alternative to traditional dough.
