Glad you liked it....reminds me it's been awhile since I made this!!

Sharon, if you're reading - I'm making this tonight, and I have to tell you, I'm excited. The ingredients alone look yummy!

Be back to report later :)

OK the verdict is in: :yum:

I made it with ground beef, hot sausage, onions, and a little tomato. I may even have the nutritional information for the 'crust' still kicking around if anyone is interested.

This is a great recipe - I have lunches for the week (well nearly all of the week, I had to let mom & dad taste this one it was so good).

Definitely a new staple in the kitchen.

What is the approx. carb content?
 

Can anyone tell me what the approx carb content is for this deep dish quiche pizza? It sounds really good.

Halo, it is delicious - but unfortunately the carb count will vary based on what you put on the pizza. I'll see if I still have the info for the base alone - you'd have to figure out the numbers for the toppings, though.

Thanks..... I tried it this weekend... and the whole family loved it...

I'm just making this now and noticed the recipe doesn't say when to add the garlic. Does it go into the egg mixture?

Also, what is "pizza cheese" or "italian cheeses"? I only eat organic, so I'm not familiar with this item. I just assume mozzarella and parmesan are italian cheeses, but I must be missing something because they are already listed in the ingredients.

Thanks,
Wanda

I made this and it turned out incredible. I just used a whole bunch of cheeses and topped it with smoked chicken (from my smoker), smoked onions (from my smoker), red pepper and olives. It was like truly eating a pizza.

I put this in a cheesecake pan and it worked out very well!

Only problem was that I ate half the recipe! :eek: Maybe next time I'll be able to show some self-control.

Thank you Sharon!

Wanda, I put the garlic in the 'doughy' mixture. "Italian cheeses" to me, means Mozarella/ cheddar and parmasan - I also assumed it was 'listed already'. :)

Nat...

When you say "base", did you include the tomato sauce?

Thanks,

The recipe sounds great.......except.. is there something that I can substitute for the parmesan cheese? Or could I omit it entirely from the recipe? My DH cannot stand the sight or smell of parmesan cheese. Thanks for any replies!

What ingredient in the pizza 'base' has the most carbs?
