As you know I host a virtual online fitness group helping other women get fit too. Inside that group, I share what I eat each day my own personal recipes and this recipe has spread like WILDFIRE. One day I had some already cooked spaghetti squash in the fridge, it was Friday night, and Josh and I had been working on the rental all day. It was for sure a pizza kinda night but I have been working my way back to fit after recovering from my double mastectomy, reconstruction, and what I thought to be my body rejecting the implants nope just mono. I know fun haha! I was focused and this genius was born!
I mixed up all these ingredients not really sure what would happen, It turns out it was magic and ALL OF US make this multiple times a week and our husbands are requesting it too, so thought I would share!
Makes 2 personal pizzas
Ingredients
For the crust
1 small spaghetti squash cooked and shredded ( if you don’t know how to do this cut squash in half, scoop out seeds spray with olive oil spray, salt, and pepper, put on a tin foil-lined sheet pan, cut side down bake for 30-35 min at 350. Let cool.. using a fork scrape the flesh out down to the skin
2 eggs ( 2 flax eggs for Vegan option)
2 tablespoons almond flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon oregano
olive oil spray
Toppings
1 cup any cheese you like ( Vegan cheese option)
1/2 cup any shredded meat ( jackfruit option) I have been obsessed with shredded pork or chicken bbq which is what I used in this recipe. I use the instant pot, 3 chicken thighs with 1/4 cup bbq sauce cook on manual, high pressure for 20 min. I put it in wraps, quesadillas, stuffed baked potato, and more importantly this pizza!!!!!!
6 tablespoons of BBQ sauce
2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 and spray 2 pie dishes with olive oil spray, set aside
Use a paper towel, clean dishcloth or cheesecloth to squeeze out any excess liquid from the squash
place in a bowl with eggs, almond flour and spices mix with a fork
Place 1/2 the crust mixture in each pie pan and pat down with a fork, cook for 15-20 minutes until firm and a little browned on the edges
when done spread 2 tablespoons of sauce on each pizza , add your cheese, meat, and onions to each one
pop them under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly
drizzle the last tablespoon of bbq on top of each pizza and ENJOY!
I would love for you to tag me on IG if you make this and let me know what you think @lisamhauck love seeing you make my recipes!
RECIPE TIPS-
I like to cook a squash each weekend and have it in the fridge for this recipe makes it super simple and we’ve been eating this each week so meal prepping it was a no brainer
I recommend roasting the squash overusing the instant pot because the squash ends up too watery. You can do it this way just make sure you squeeze the water out.
Ideas of different pizza, we have done pepperoni, roasted veggies, the bbq one and NOW I want to try buffalo mozzarella, tomato and fresh basil to do a margarita style so you can get very creative with this!
