Here is a fabulous LowCarb recipe of a popular meal... Hope you love it! Low Carb Deep Dish Meat Crust Pizza      I don't believe anything can exactly replace a bread crust, however, in this case the flavor is pretty damned close.. Ha!

     CRUST
          3 lbs lean ground beef
          1 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, freshly grated
          3 large eggs
          1 med. onion, finely chopped, or 1/2 cup dried minced onion
          2 cloves garlic, finely chopped, or substitute 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
          1 Tbs. salt
          3/4 tsp. black pepper
          3/4 tsp. fennel seed

     SAUCE
          2 1/4 cups plum tomatoes, chopped and drained , or 2 x 8 oz cans of tomato sauce
          1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper seed
          1 tsp. dried oregano, or 1 Tbls. fresh
          2 Tbs. fresh basil, or 2 teaspoons dry
          salt & pepper  to taste

     TOPPING
          1/2 lb. mozzarella cheese, shredded, or Provolone
          sausage or pepperoni (optional)
          oregano
          3 Tbs. Parmigiano-Reggiano, freshly grated

     Preheat oven to 375.
     1) Mix all crust ingredients. Separate into 2 pieces and flatten them onto cookie sheets.
     Each should be approx. 1/2" thick when finished.
     2) Bake for 20 min. Drain off accumulated liquids. Return to oven for 10 additional mins., drain again if necessary.
     3) Meanwhile, blend sauce ingredients. Spread over both crusts.
     4) Spread toppings evenly and place back in the oven for about 15 min, or until cheese is lightly browned.
     Remove and let sit about a minute, slice and serve.

Whale Steak

4 portions

4 slices of whalemeat @ 150 - 180 g
Salt and pepper, preferably freshly ground
4 onion rings
2 dessert spoonfulls of finely diced green or red peppers
1 dessert spoonful of finely diced parsley
1 dessert spoonful of finely diced gherkins

Carve the meat into slices of about 1.5 to 2 cm thick, beat them with your hands and press them into shape. Preheat the frying pan and melt some butter in it. Brown the butter before adding the meat. Fry the steaks on both sides. Whale meat should be fried for about 4-5 minutes on each side. The steaks taste best when they are medium rare, but they should be warmed right through and not eaten raw. Serve the steaks on a plate, place an onion ring on each of them and fill it with peppers, parsley and gherkins. Potato scollops taste good together with the steaks. Serve with a bowl of good, crisp lettuce and salad.

Crustless Pumpkin Pie


15 ounces pumpkin
12 ounces evaporated skim milk
1/2 cup Egg Beaters® 99% egg substitute (2 eggs equivalent)
2 egg whites
3/4 cup sugar substitute (Splenda)
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin, egg substitute, egg whites, and
sugar substitute; beat until smooth.

Add the spices; beat until well mixed. Feel free to substitute the spices from your favorite recipe - I happen to like these.

Stir in the graham cracker crumbs.

Pour into a 9" pie plate coated with non-stick cooking spray.

Bake at 325 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until knife inserted near the
center comes out clean. Cool.

Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon, if
desired.

Store in the refrigerator.
