Ingredients
- 1 large ‘flat out’ flatbread wrap
- 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup tomato sauce (no sugar added)
- 2 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Your choice of cheese

Your choice of toppings

- sausage
- bell peppers (green, red, yellow or orange)
- onions

- spinach
- tomatoes
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 415 degrees F.
-
In a small saucepan, combine tomato sauce, seasonings, and garlic. Stir well.
-
Heat over low-medium heat until warm, stirring frequently.
-
In the meantime, place the flatbread wrap on a pizza stone (if you have one) or cookie sheet.
-
Brush the flat bread with the extra virgin olive oil, place it in the oven for about three minutes. This allows the flatbread crisp a little before adding the sauce.
-
Remove the flatbread wrap from the oven, and ladle with tomato sauce.
-
Spread sauce out evenly over the flatbread wrap.
-
Add your choice of toppings evenly around the pizza.
-
Top with cheese evenly around the pizza.
-
Place the pizza into the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and starting to bubble. The cooking time will depend on your choice of cheese and toppings.
-
Remove from oven.
-
Sprinkle with a little Parmesan cheese and more Italian seasoning, if desired.
-
Let cool slightly, slice into thin pieces, serve and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
This recipe is NOT safe for the 1st 3 weeks of HCG Phase 3, because it contains 'starch' in the flatbread. However, we have seen some of our customers get creative with cauliflower and make this recipe using a cauliflower pizza crust.
