Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 6 servings Revolutionary Focaccia Bread–or a low carb wrap or flat bread
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic–pressed
  • 6 ounces mozzarella cheese, part skim milk
  • 2 servings Moroccan Lamb Sausage–1/3 of the recipe (Recipe Follows)
  • 1/2 cup artichoke hearts–14 ounce can
  • 12 alamata olives, pitted and halved
  • 12 grape tomatoes
  • 1/8 cup Parmesan cheese–grated

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°.
  2. Make a recipe of Revolutionary Focaccia bread as written but instead of baking it in a square Pyrex pan, line a 14×18-inch baking sheet with parchment paper and evenly spread batter onto it. Bake per instructions, for 35-40 minutes or until done, tenting with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning. Remove from oven and cut into 2 pieces. Use one half pan per pizza. This can be made ahead and even frozen.
  3. Make a paste with garlic cloves and olive oil. Brush onto crust, including the edges. Sprinkle Parmesan Cheese around the edges of the crust. Top with mozzarella, lamb sausage, artichoke hearts, Kalamata olives, and grape tomatoes.
  4. Bake at 400° until cheese is melted and tomatoes are roasted.
  5. Serve immediately.

Notes

Serving Ideas: Serve with a simple green salad with cucumbers, purple onions, and house vinaigrette.

Assuming you have the Revolutionary Focaccia and lamb sausage made in advance, you can have this pizza ready and on plates before the pizza guy could even make it to your front door.

This is a delicious take on pizza. The focaccia bread makes a great pizza base for very few carbs. The homemade lamb sausage is the bomb.

If you don’t mind a bit of soy and gluten, you can simplify life even more by using a pre-packaged low carb flat bread as the pizza base. But since I try to avoid the main sources of both, the Revolutionary Focaccia Bread works great.

I just can’t say enough about this pizza. It’s hard to believe you can eat lamb, artichoke hearts, and Kalamata olives on a budget. These days, it’s difficult to buy high carbage, delivery pizza for less than $10.00 and here you have a 4-topping, gourmet pizza which easily feeds a family of four for less than nine bucks.

All you need is a simple and cheap side salad and this meal is done!
