I teased my Instagram followers with this recipe in my stories recently and asked if they wanted the recipe. 100% of them voted yes! I knew y’all will be interested too.

If you haven’t tried Cut Da Carb flatbreads yet, I highly recommend them! See this post for more details.

See notes as well as flavor variation ideas below! Tell me what variation you’d come up with! The possibilities are endless!

🥣 Ingredients:
👉🏼1 Cut Da Carb flatbread
👉🏼92g liquid egg whites, cooked and broken up (I microwaved for 1 minute per my egg white flat method)
👉🏼56g sweet onion, cooked to caramelize
👉🏼21g turkey pepperoni
👉🏼28g low-fat (2% milk) shredded mozzarella
👉🏼33g tomato paste
👉🏼28g water
👉🏼Pinch or two seasonings of choice

👩🏻‍🍳 Instructions:
1️⃣ Heat a large skillet over medium heat on the stove. Cut the flatbread in half. Place half on the skillet and toast slightly on both sides. If the whole thing fits, you can do both at once, but I have to do each piece separately. I prefer doing two pieces so that I get crispy edges all the way around each piece. I’ve tried doing it all in one piece, and the middle ends up too flimsy.
🚨 IMPORTANT: The edges will crisp up when it’s under broil, so just get it to where it’s rigid enough that toppings can be added.
2️⃣ Mix tomato paste, water, and seasonings together to make pizza sauce.
3️⃣ Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the toasted flatbread(s) on the sheet.
4️⃣ Turn oven to low broil.
5️⃣ Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the flatbread(s), leaving some of the edges without any sauce so that they can get crispy in the oven.
6️⃣ Sprinkle the crumbled egg white, shredded cheese, and onion on the flatbread(s).
7️⃣ Add turkey pepperoni.
8️⃣ Broil for 2-3 minutes depending on your oven and how crispy you want the edges to get. Check every 30 seconds or so because it will burn quickly!
9️⃣ Remove from the oven, transfer to a plate, and slice into squares or triangles using a pizza cutter.
🔟 Enjoy!

📝 Notes:
‼️ Trust me on the egg whites. I know it sounds odd, but they pretty much end up the same texture as the cheese and add 10g of protein for only 50 cal.

‼️ You can easily adjust ingredients and toppings to suit macros.

‼️ You can 100% make this with another type of flatbread, but I love the way that these crisp up. The ingredients and nutrition stars are amazing.

‼️ You don’t have to cook the onion first, but I like the caramelization of cooking them before hand.

‼️ Add any of your favorite pizza toppings such as bell pepper, mushroom, tomato, sliced olives, etc.

‼️ The low fat mozzarella I use has 70 cal, 4F, 3C and 8P per serving. Check labels! If you are someone who needs sneaky ways to get some extra protein, this kind of thing can help.
