Did Someone Say Pizza?

Today I found out that instead of going in for two 12-hour shifts tomorrow, I am going in for four 12-hour shifts.  

Hello over-time. 

Since Ed is racing time, trying to get the siding on the house before the weather turns cold - I decided to try and meal prep to get us through the next four days.  Lord knows, when I get home at 7:30 PM after working 12 hours, I am not going to want to cook.  Yes, I know some of my fellow co-workers do, and I feel for you.  But that's not me.  Ed almost always has dinner on the table when I get home.

So today we made PIZZA!  

Keto Friendly Pizza, that is.

"Supreme"  Chicken Crusted Pizza.
pizza sauce, sausage, peppers, onions, bacon bits, pepperoni, olives & mozzarella cheese.

I have posted the recipe for this Chicken Crusted Pizza before.  But I just gotta say, if you have not tried it yet, you are missing out!

Ed and I ate off these two pizzas tonight.  and we probably have enough left-overs to feed us for the next four nights - and then some!  Check this out.

Not one, but TWO 5-cup dishes full of left-overs of each pizza. We will probably grow tired of the pizza before we run out, since it's just the two of us here.

If the thought of a Chicken Crusted Pizza grosses you out .... take a look at this "crust".

I am not entirely sure what my macros are when we eat this pizza, becuase I do not measure everything.  I just kinda-sorta follow the general recipe. I'll add another egg or a little more cheese if I think it needs it.  I just mix it until it has a dough-like consistency. I also do not measure how much sauce, cheese, etc I am putting on the pizza.  But everything in my pizza is Keto Friendly.

I can honestly say, that if you have a favorite pizza topping - as long as it is Keto Friendly, you could make it on this Chicken Crust.  I personally don't think it "tastes like chicken" ....  It's just crust.  

Perhaps our next experiment should be to top it with Cinnamon and Stevia!  😋  

Rachel's 3-minute 3 Carb Chicken

Today, as I was fixing Ed's lunch, I decided I was going to hop on here and share this recipe with you.  I know we all need a quick and easy lunch idea occasionally.  

I cannot take credit for this gem.  It's one my daughter threw together.  She mentioned it to Ed, and he bought the ingredients right away, but it took us a good while to give it a try.  I don't know why, probably because the idea of eating cooked frozen chicken didn't sound very appealing. But I am glad that we finally gave it a try.  We have now made it quite a few times, I might add.

 

I should also mention that you should check the Nutrition Facts when you grab your chicken.  Tyson makes several different versions of the cooked & ready grilled chicken and some of them have more than just 1 carb.

Tyson's Grilled and Ready Fajita Chicken Breast Strips 
Real Bacon Bacon Bits
Shredded Cheese
Walden Farms Chipotle Ranch dressing

 

Toss the frozen chicken into your serving bowl and heat in the microwave for about 2 1/2 minutes.  Add the bacon bits and shredded cheese and heat for another 30 seconds - or until cheese is melted.  Top with the Chipotle Ranch Dressing, stir to mix well.  Then enjoy!

With this recipe, you get 1 carb from the chicken, 1 carb from the shredded cheese and 1 carb from the dressing.
