When you want pizza, you don’t always want to make a pizza or order out. It’s an easy meal when I am short on time. It’s in my top 3 go-to time saving meals along with my bell pepper sandwich and pesto pasta.

The ideal method for making a crustless pizza bowl is to cook it in the microwave. Once you add all of your favorite pizza toppings to a bowl. It only takes about a minute to cook the ingredients and melt the cheese. It comes out bubbly hot and you get the most incredible cheese pull that get your stomach growling on pizza night.

What makes this recipe keto?

• It’s crustless pizza – It’s no surprise that all the carbs in pizza is in the crust. This keto pizza bowl is a smaller, portion controlled version of a crustless pizza. You get the satisfaction of eating pizza, but without the pizza dough!
• Low sugar marinara – Look for brands of pizza sauce that low in carbs. Many bottled marinara sauces at the grocery store contain added sugars for flavor. There are a few brands, like Rao’s and YoMama that make keto approved pizza sauce. If you really want to control the ingredients in your red sauce, just make your own marinara!

KetoFocus fans agree it’s the best quick pizza option on a keto diet!!

Key ingredients

• Pizza sauce – You only need a few tablespoons of pizza sauce or marinara sauce. Tomato sauce can also be used in a pinch. For a white pizza sauce, try using alfredo sauce or even ranch dressing.
• Pizza toppings – Add you favorite pizza toppings – as long as they are pre-cooked. Since we are only microwaving our pizza bowl to melt the cheese, it’s important for the ingredients to be fully cooked for safety and texture. Consider adding pepperoni, salami, black olives, mushroom, cooked Italian sausage, cooked bacon, meatballs, fresh basil, bell pepper and/or onions.
• Cheese – For this recipe, I used shredded mozzarella cheese, but you can add your favorite blend of Italian cheeses like cheddar, Colby Jack, Provolone, Parmesan cheese.
