     If you want to make Pizza even "funner", try Pizza Muffins on for size!  And if a low carb crust grabs your attention, you are in for even more good news.  Each of these 12 servings are only 85 calories, 1.2g carbs, .1g fiber, 1.1g net carbs, 13.4g protein and 3.5g fat.  Whether you are hosting a party, or just having a yummy meal at home, this is one to try out, and watch your taste buds come alive!

Ingredients for 12 servings~
1 pound Kroger 99% Lean Ground Turkey
1 Kroger Extra Large Egg
1/4 cup (2oz) Kroger Mozzarella (I shred my own, but you can buy it pre shredded)
Dash Salt
Dash Pepper
Dash Garlic Powder

1/4 cup Simple Truth Organic Pizza Sauce
1/4 cup (2oz) Kroger Mozzarella (I shred my own, but you can buy it pre shredded)
12 slices Kroger Turkey Pepperoni, more if desired
36 slices Black Olives, more if desired, feel free to cut in half if desired

Chopped Parsley, as garnish if desired

     Stir first set of ingredients together til well combined, divide equally into 1 5/8 ounces/ 45-46 grams (you will need a food scale, or come as close as you can to 12 equal pieces).  I have a simple trick to divide dough into two equal parts, then divide those halves into halves again.  Then all you have to do is divide each of the fourths into 3, it’s a lot less weighing, and of course feel free to just eye ball it if you prefer.  Pat into bottom of a 12 silpat lined cupcake tin, bake at 400 for 20 minutes.  Remove, add one teaspoon Sauce, one Pepperoni, one teaspoon shredded Mozzarella and 3 Black Olive slices.  Return to oven and bake til cheese melts, approximately 10 minutes, just keep an eye on it.  Garnish with Parsley if desired.  Enjoy  :)  PS  If you want a thinner "crust", then divide the "dough" in half and make 24 disc's.
