Ingredients
- 185 grams (approximately 1 standard can) canned tuna (in water)
- 1 eggs
- 25 grams (about 1/4 cup) shredded mozzarella cheese
- 15 grams (about 2 tablespoons) grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons dried oregano
- 60 grams (about 1/4 cup) pizza sauce (low-carb, unsweetened)
- 50 grams (about 1/2 cup) shredded mozzarella cheese (for topping)
- 0 (optional, to taste) toppings of choice (e.g., sliced bell peppers, olives, pepperoni)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza tray with parchment paper.
Step 2
Drain the canned tuna completely to remove as much liquid as possible. Use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to press out the excess moisture if needed.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, egg, shredded mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of oregano. Mix until well combined.
Step 4
Transfer the tuna mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and form it into a thin, even circle or rectangle, roughly 1/4-inch (0.6 cm) thick. Press it firmly to ensure it holds together.
Step 5
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until it becomes firm and slightly golden.
Step 6
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the low-carb pizza sauce evenly over it. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella for topping and your desired toppings over the sauce.
Step 7
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 8
Once baked, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of oregano on top for added flavor.
Step 9
Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your low-carb tuna pizza!
