Ingredients Needed

For the Zero-Carb Crust

• 1.5 lbs Lean Ground Beef (85/15 is ideal for flavor, but 93/7 also works)
• 1 Large Egg
• 1 tsp Salt
• ½ tsp Black Pepper
• ½ tsp Garlic Powder (Optional: Omit for strictest Carnivore)

For the Zero-Carb Toppings

• ½ cup Low-Sugar/Zero-Carb Pizza Sauce (Read labels for 0g sugar/carb, or use a thin layer of cream cheese for Carnivore)
• 1 cup Shredded Full-Fat Mozzarella Cheese (Whole Milk preferred)
• 10-12 slices Uncured Turkey Pepperoni or Standard Pepperoni (Check for no added sugar/dextrose)
• 1 tbsp Dried Oregano (Optional: Omit for strictest Carnivore)

How to Make Our Zero-Carb Pizza

1. Prep the Crust: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, salt, pepper, and garlic powder (if using). Mix thoroughly using your hands until just combined—do not overmix.
2. Shape the Dough: Press the meat mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet into a 10×12-inch rectangular crust shape, about $\frac{1}{2}$ inch thick. Create a slight lip around the edge to form a crust barrier.
3. Pre-Bake: Bake the crust for 15 minutes. This allows the crust to set and the fat to render.
4. Drain the Fat: Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Gently blot or carefully pour off any excess rendered fat from the baking sheet.
5. Load the Toppings: Spread a thin layer of your zero-carb sauce or cream cheese over the pre-baked crust. Top evenly with the shredded mozzarella, followed by the pepperoni slices and oregano (if using).
6. Final Bake: Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and bubbly, and the pepperoni edges are crispy.
7. Rest and Slice: Let the pizza rest for 5 minutes before slicing into 4 generous squares.

Storage & Serving Suggestions

This “meatza” holds up surprisingly well and is fantastic for meal prep.

• Storing: Allow any leftovers to cool completely. Store slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Reheating: Reheat slices in an air fryer or a toaster oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes. This is crucial for crisping up the meat crust again. Microwaving may result in a rubbery texture.
• Freezing: You can freeze individual cooked slices wrapped tightly in foil for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating as instructed above.
• Serving Pairings: Since the pizza is already a complete meal (protein and fat), serve it alongside a simple zero-carb beverage like sparkling water or a cup of rich, fatty bone broth for maximum nourishment.
