Keto Personal Pan Pizza: The ultimate comfort food
One of the nice things I’ve discovered since starting the ketogenic diet is that my craving for food has greatly diminished. I am able to watch food commercials on TV quite passively now. Not a twinge of the old familiar cravings in site.
With that being said, I still enjoy the familiar taste of foods that I grew up with. The good news is, I don’t need to sacrifice those delicious tastes just because I’m doing keto. I can still sit down and enjoy a keto personal pan pizza whenever I want to.
Life is good, indeed.
Personal pan pizza your way: Keto style
The tasty keto personal pan pizza can be whipped up in a flash and personalized any way you’d like. As an added bonus, it tastes amazing. Mix and match with your favorite low carb toppings to make it personal.
Be sure to watch the sugar content on the meats you find in the grocery store. They can be chock full of ingredients you don’t want to eat. My homemade low carb sausage might be a lower cost option when you are looking for the perfect topping. Or head over to US Wellness Meats for great sugar free options that I enjoy.
Recommendations
I am constantly looking for the best online stores to buy quality ingredients with a price I can live with. A common problem on the keto diet is staying within a budget. So, I’ve put together a list of the best online friendly stores I’ve found.
Check them out and tell me what you think in the comments below. Also, the Keto Forum is a great place to share your budget finds and see where others are finding their great deals.
Best of all, they are reasonably priced at $14.99 for both!. Get yours at Amazon.

The keto pizza dough recipe was adapted very loosely from The KetoDietapp ‘s Keto Pumpkin Cheesecake Breakfast Pockets by Martina Slajerova. If you haven’t checked out her blog and keto diet app you are definitely missing out. It’s pretty darn amazing and a definite lifeline when I first started keto.
