Notes: I followed the Diet Doctor recipe (Click Here) for making the crust except I melted my Cheese’s in the microwave rather than on the stove top and I added seasonings. Watch the diet doctor video below for a demonstration.

This crust can be made thicker to make breadsticks.

Regarding Toppings: Get creative! Use pesto or garlic butter instead of pasta sauce.  If you have left over Thai chicken, butter chicken, charcuterie etc get creative and turn it into a pizza topping. This crust can also be used to make a calzone.
