That’s why I’ve been perfecting my high protein, zero carb pizza crust recipe over the last three years, and I’m excited to share the latest iteration with you.

The chicken-based crust — I know, I know…it sounds crazy – but it is a creative and nutritious alternative to traditional dough, providing a satisfying crunch and a perfect base for your favorite toppings.
