Pineapple Veggie Pizza by Claire Ballard

This recipe is a little controversial considering that it brings up the age-old question, Does pineapple belong on pizza? 

With our ZeroCarb LYFE Crust, we encourage you to try ANY toppings you want…including pineapple! During the summer months, a little fresh pineapple can serve as a sweet and refreshing twist to your favorite pizza. If you’re looking for a spicy and sweet summer pizza recipe, this is it!

Here's what you’ll need to create the perfect Pineapple Veggie Pizza…

- 1 ZeroCarb LYFE Frozen Pizza Crust

- ½ cup Pizza Sauce (of your choice)

- ¼ cup Chopped Mushrooms

- 1 Bell Pepper (orange, but any will work)

- ½ cup Pineapple

- ¼ cup Diced Red Onion

- ¼ cup Tomato

- Jalapeno to taste (Optional)

- Red Pepper Flakes (Optional)

First, grab your ZeroCarb LYFE Crust out of the freezer and let it thaw for 5-10 minutes. While the crust is thawing, preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. As you wait, you can gather the ingredients you will be using and begin chopping the vegetables to the size you prefer. (Optional: for a crispier crust, pre-bake the ZeroCarb LYFE Crust without any toppings for 5-8 minutes.)
