I started 75 Hard on a whole foods diet and had no idea what I would be missing! I cut out rice, pasta, bread. noodles and anything with white flour and I’m proud to say it’s my 20th day and I’m feeling great! One thing I did miss is having a slice of pizza but this high protein “pizza” has been a great sub to curb my appetite! I’ve made this a couple of times already and I’m obsessed!

I really like the ground turkey has a mild taste so the pizza sauce and cheese do a great job of making this really feel like pizza! This also has almost 50g of protein which is a best win if you’re sticking to a high protein diet!

HERE IS HOW TO MAKE HIGH PROTEIN PIZZA:

WHERE CAN I FIND THESE INGREDIENTS?

You can find these ingredients anywhere! Ground turkey should be available at your local meat department of the grocery store. You can use any pizza sauce you’d like and it is generally found where the pasta sauces are. Last but not least, cheese! I love using fresh mozzarella but you can also try and find a low fat cheese or whatever cheese you love the most!

WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?

The ingredients to make this delicious high protein pizza are:

  • Ground Turkey
  • Pizza Sauce
  • Shredded Cheese
  • Any seasonings you’d like – Italian, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder etc!
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

For this recipe, all you’ll really need is a baking tray or pizza dish as well as some parchment paper! Aside from that, you can basically just eye all the ingredients or make it to your liking OR if you’re tracking calories and macros, you’ll need a scale!

Here are some of my Amazon kitchen favs:

CAN I SUBSTITUTE/ADD ANYTHING OUT?

You sure can!! This is one of those recipes that you can really make it your own. I keep mine super simple and just top with tomatoes but you can put anything! I made this for dinner for my husband and he put pepperoni and mushrooms on his. Here are some suggestions to change up this recipe:

  • Using ground chicken instead
  • Adding any toppings you’d like on top
  • Subbing the pizza sauce for alfredo sauce
  • Adding fresh herbs like basil to finish it off
  • Drizzle some spicy oil before eating

WHAT DOES HIGH PROTEIN PIZZA TASTE LIKE?

Honestly, this hit the spot so good! It was a cold winter evening and all I could think about was sinking my teeth into some pizza but didn’t want to cheat on my diet. I had an idea to make the ground turkey that I already had in the fridge into a pizza crust and it truly hit! I added Italian seasoning to the ground turkey and laid it in a thin layer before baking so it got really crisp!

HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?

I like to meal prep so I made a few of these to enjoy for later. I sometimes can eat the whole thing and sometimes save some for another day. Keep in your fridge for up to 4 days in an airtight container! I heat them up in the microwave and they are just fine but you can also reheat in the air fryer to keep a little bit of crisp!

INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS RECIPE?

Dieting of any kind for me has always been hard. I LOVE food and have always been a foodie so in order to achieve my goals, I knew I needed to make the necessary changes. I know that bread is not the enemy here and I love having toast for breakfast but if you want to succeed in a goal that you’ve set, you have to be real with yourself and sacrifice. That is why I have been loving a high-protein diet! It’s truly been satisfying and keeps me full longer.

Swaps like this high protein pizza as well as my High Protein Buffalo Chicken Dip and High Protein 2 Ingredient Ranch Dip has really supported me in my weightloss and fitness journey so far!

ANY OTHER NOTES?

No other notes but I’d love to see what kinds of toppings you put on!
