Commentary
I’m the type of person who thinks you have to try really hard to make a Pizza terrible. Obviously I have favorites and dislikes, but in general pizza is just good. Totino’s Frozen Pizza on up to a Chicago Deep Dish Pizza or a giant slice from New York. The typical issue with pizza is that it is calorie rich so anytime you can find hacks or methods to get those calories down, you win. A quick solution to regular pizza is getting thin crust. Even more cutting can be had with cauliflower crust pizza.
For our purposes, we were looking for low calorie, low carbohydrate, and low cook time. We found just that with this simple recipe cooked in the air fryer.
