The following two pizza crust recipes satiate all your pizza cravings with binge-busting protein power. We tweaked and tweaked until they tasted so close to the real fattening, white,
starchy kind. (You know, the kind that ignites overeating, cravings, and an exploding waistline.) You are now free from all that! Try both crusts to find your personal favorite. (First is
Pearl’s, second is Serene’s.)
Top these angelic crusts with your favorite toppings that you already enjoy on “bad for ya bod” pizza crusts. Hold nothing back and wow your taste buds! Both of these crusts are Fuel Pulls. There are some awesome S pizza crust recipes out there that you may come across on Pinterest and, yes, we do sanction them. They are great for a now and then, but too often they are made with oodles of almond flour, plus cheese plus other fats. That means the crusts are filled with as many calories as all the pizza toppings themselves.
SERENE CHATS: You have two options for making this crust. Option A takes a little longer and gives the ultimate result. But if you don’t have a few spare minutes to beat your egg whites, try Option B. It is still yum but skips a few steps. This recipe is found in the “Family Theme Nights~ Pizza Night” section, page 283 of Trim Healthy Table Cookbook.

Instructions
Baking Instructions:
-
Position a rack in the bottom third of the oven and preheat to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or grease a very large pizza stone.
Option A:
-
Make the dry mix. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and flatten any bumps (even tiny ones) with the back of a spoon, pressing against the sides and bottom of the bowl. Set aside.
-
Make the wet mix. Put the cottage cheese in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Set aside. With a handheld electric mixer, beat the egg whites with the xanthan gum and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. (A stand mixer does not give as good of a result—the crust becomes too dry for some reason.)
-
Gently fold the creamed cottage cheese into the beaten egg whites with a spatula. Don’t stir like mad and deflate the egg whites. Now sprinkle on the dry mix in stages, folding it in gently.
-
Spread this mixture about ¹⁄³ inch thick onto the prepared baking sheets or stone using a moistened spatula. Bake for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool a little, then top with your favorites. Return to the oven, place directly on an upper rack, and broil until the cheese is melty.
Option B:
-
Place the dry mix and wet mix ingredients in a blender and blend.
-
Spread the mixture on the baking sheets and bake as directed in Option A.
Note
NOTE: We think pizza should be a Drive-Thru-Sue, no-fuss experience, something that you go for when you don’t want a lot of crazy cooking steps at dinnertime. So make a quadruple batch of the dry mix and divide it into 4 bags so you can easily whip one out, massage the lumps away, and avoid a step.

PIZZA NIGHT!!
This Pizza Crust recipe is part of the Pizza Night Section of Trim Healthy Table Page 280!!
The following two pizza crust recipes satiate all your pizza cravings with binge-busting protein power. We tweaked and tweaked until they tasted so close to the real fattening, white, starchy kind. (You know, the kind that ignites overeating, cravings, and an exploding waistline.) You are now free from all that! Try both crusts to find your personal favorite. (First is Pearl’s, second is Serene’s.)
Top these angelic crusts with your favorite toppings that you already enjoy on “bad for ya bod” pizza crusts. Hold nothing back and wow your taste buds! Both of these crusts are Fuel Pulls. There are some awesome S pizza crust recipes out there that you may come across on Pinterest and, yes, we do sanction them. They are great for a now and then, but too often they are made with oodles of almond flour, plus cheese plus other fats. That means the crusts are filled with as many calories as all the pizza toppings themselves.
Remember, while we don’t count calories, there’s no need to abuse them. Eating those pizza crusts may not be something you can pull off regularly if you are a turtle at losing weight. But even if you can eat those regularly and still lose weight, give our FP crusts a chance; we think they’re going to wow you! (Also, for NSI friendly crusts, feel free to use any of these as a pizza crust: the batter from Wonder White Blender Bread on page 242, the Beauty Blend Thin and Crispy Pizza Crust on page 506, or the Cheesy Bread Sticks on page 252. And don’t forget about the Personal Pan Pizza option on page 310.)
