Ingredients
For the Crust
- 1 ¾ cup Mozzarella cheese shredded
- ¾ cup almond flour (click to see my favorite)
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 large Egg
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ cup Parmesan cheese grated
For the salad
- 1 large Chicken breast cooked and chopped
- 4 cups Romaine lettuce chopped
- 4 Tablespoons Caesar dressing
Instructions
- preheat oven to 400F
- Add the mozzarella cheese, almond flour, and cream cheese to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute, stir, then microwave for 30 seconds more. Stir until combined and not too hot to touch, then stir in the egg and knead until the egg is completely combined.
- Spread the dough out onto a piece of parchment paper. Press the dough out with your hands until it is ¼ inch thick. Place the parchment and pizza crust in the oven and bake for 10 minute. Pop any bubbles that form in the crust while baking.
- Remove the crust from the oven and spread with the olive oil and parmesan cheese. Bake an additional 5 minutes. Remove from the oven
- While the crust is baking, toss the lettuce, chicken, and dressing to make the salad.
- To serve, pile the caesar salad on top of the fathead crust and slice.
Notes
- I like to use Newmans Own creamy Caesar. You could also make your own.
- Chop the lettuce and the chicken into small pieces so it is easier to eat on the pizza.
- To make this without a microwave: Add the mozzarella, cream cheese, and almond four to a sauce pan on the stove over medium heat and cover with a lid. Let cook until the cheese is just melted. Remove from heat and stir until everything is combined. Pour into a bowl and let cool until you can knead it with your hands. Add the egg and knead until completely combined. Place on a piece of parchment paper and press into a round or oblong shape ¼ inch thick.
