Tuna Meatzza

I’m making one of my favorite low carb pizzas – tuna meatzza 🍕 (yes, that means the base is made out of canned tuna!)

Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it! 😋 It’s full of delicious protein, fat and some carbs. And – it’s delicious. It’s also the first time I ever cook in front of the camera. 🐒 This week’s #type1thursday is something else…

Let’s go!

Tuna Meatzza Recipe

Tuna Meatzza base

2 cans of tuna in brine/natural
1 egg 2 tbsp cream cheese
ca 0.5 dl grana padano cheese

Mix all of it until it becomes a smooth mix. Flatten out between two parchment papers, pre-cook in the oven at 180 Celcius (355 Fahrenheit) for 10-15 minutes.

Meatzza Sauce

1,5 dl Ajvar (turkish vegetable sauce)
1 tbsp tomato puree
1 tsp concentrated bone broth
italian herbs
garlic powder
onion powder
a splash of water

Let simmer until it forms a nice pizza sauce

Tuna Meatzza Toppings

Mozzarella cheese (shredded, without starches!) You can use fresh, too, but it gets waterier.
1 red onion
black olives 😋

After pre-cooking the pizza base, spread on the sauce, followed by the toppings and put it back in the oven for about 10 mins.

Enjoy a low carb, nutritious and delicious meatzza! 🍕 🤤
