INGREDIENTS

• 1 pound ground chicken

• 1 egg

• ¼ c. parmesan cheese

• ¼ c. mozzarella cheese

• ½ c. marinara

• Oregano, garlic powder, black pepper

• Your favorite classic pizza toppings

1. Add chicken, egg, parmesan and mozzarella cheese and a pinch of each spice to a bowl and mix well.

2. On a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, roll or spread mixture out into your pizza crust. *Spread this out to ¼ inch so it will cook thoroughly and get crispy. If the crust is too thick, it will be soggy.

3. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. The crust should be beginning to brown.

4. Remove crust from the oven and add sauce and additional toppings. Add a little more mozzarella on top.

5. Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until brown to your liking. This recipe makes one pizza or 6 slices. Protein pizza is more filling than regular. Make pizza night fun by letting kids top their pizza with their favorite toppings.
