Next a layer of pepperoni.
Then, Mids Pizza Sauce. To me, it tastes better than regular pizza sauce.
Then a layer of mushrooms.
Then a little mozzerella on top.

Bake it. It's really good and does not make my blood sugar spike.
That sound great. Thanks for sharing. Which is what I was asking when I started this post. Has anyone done Keto and have any recipes. lol

Fathead Pizza dough is a staple of keto diets.

Combine
3/4 cup mozzeralla
2 Tbsp cream cheese
1 egg
Italian spices to taste
3/4 almond flour.

Combine these until well blended. A food processor can help.
Place in fridge for 30 minutes, then place between two pieces of wax paper and roll it out as thin as you want it. Bake in 400F oven until browned, then add toppings of your choice and continue cooking until dine.

Thank you. Sounds great. I will try it.

Old Folks makes a number of flavors of sausage.
I've used Italian sausage in this recipe as well. I've also blended Italian with Medium Spicy. They also have full Spicy. They're all good.
The wife likes to put fajita veggies on hers. None for me... I'm not a big pepper person.

IMO, the Mids pizza sauce is the key ingredient. I'd use it no matter how you make the pizza.

This is close to the original. There are variations on this and you can Google or Youtube for more.

It's been modified to make other things like bagels, garlic bread etc.

Just curious is anyone else has had success with Keto eating and any great recipes to share?
My niece follows a keto diet and looks great. I'm eating a diet recommended in The Plant Paradox which is the only diet that's ever worked for me...I've lost all of my excess weight and gut and maintained it for 15 months and all of my blood number have vastly improved...at this point, I'm a true believer.

How can you eat a lot of vegetables on a Keto diet and stay under 20 carbs a day? I decent salad uses almost all the daily carbs, lettuce,onion, peppers, tomatoes individually do not have a lot of carbs but collectively they add up quick to put you close to the 20 carb maximum if you have a big salad.

The 20g is net carbs, after you subtract out fiber grams. Most veggies are high enough in fiber that you end up with very low carbs.
Onions are one of the exceptions - like other root veggies it's low fiber, high carb. But you can eat bucketloads of lettuce and all other green leafy veggies.
Nightshades like peppers and tomatoes have a higher ratio of carbs to fiber but you can still eat a decent amount and stay under 20 g carbs after you subtract out the fiber.
Some people don't like to bother with subtracting out the fiber and instead set their daily total carb intake at 40-50g, which is more or less the same as 20g net carbs.

I've been keto for 2+ years now.
My diet is similar - heavy on poultry, fish, eggs, and green veggies. Cheese, pork, and red meat in moderation.
I use heavy cream daily in my coffee, love Kerrygold butter on steamed veggies, and I often have a small bowl of full fat Greek yogurt topped with a few berries and a Tbsp of flaxseed.
Like you, cheese crisps (Whisps) are a frequent treat.
Sugar-free jello has maltodextrin which my gut doesn't like at all.
Chia puddings are the bomb and recipes abound on the internet. Mostly I use yogurt, chia seeds, almond milk, and a splash of vanilla extract, topped with whatever spices I have on hand - cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg. Many folks add artificial sweeteners but I'm not a fan.

For me it's easiest to take a Paleo approach to eating so I don't have many recipes.
I've adapted my soup and chili recipes, primarily by leaving out potatoes, corn, beans, rice, and other starchy foods.
I used to eat rice with chili and with chicken soup but I've learned to enjoy cauliflower rice (available frozen) with them. Took awhile to acquire that taste but now I look forward to it.

My husband loves pot roast. I still prepare it for him just the same and avoid the carrots/potatoes when I'm eating. Mashed cauliflower (available frozen) is an excellent substitute. Again, it took awhile but now I love it.

One recipe staple for me is tuna or salmon cakes/patties. I beat an egg, add a can/pkg of tuna or salmon, a Tbsp (more or less) of olive oil mayo, dump in however much crushed pork rinds (Epic brand) as a substitute for bread crumbs, a good pinch of crushed red pepper, dill, garlic, onion powder, or whatever other seasonings I have on hand. Divide the mixture into 3's or 4's, roll into balls, flatten out a bit, chill for a few hours, then saute in coconut oil for 4-5 mins on each side. So good. I love them hot or cold. When cold, they're great broken up into green salads.
