Chicken Broccoli Pizza (Low Carb)
"This recipe is taken from Recipe 84516, Low Carb Pizza, which is very tasty. I made some modifications to lower the number of calories. The original called for heavy cream, but most grocery stores now carry low-carb milk (Hood brand, green and blue cartons). Chicken and broccoli are a great finish on this "crust"."

I realized that I didn't have any cream cheese so I used non fat cottage cheese instead. This may have been the reason the "crust" didn't firm very much even after baking an extra 15 minutes. I added tomato sauce instead of the extra layer of cream cheese and topped the pizza with onions, ground turkey breast and bell pepper. For the mozzarella cheese I used garlic and herb almond cheese and this gave a really nice flavor. I added oregano and basil to the egg mixture as well. Despite being a bit more like a lasagna, it was quite tasty. I reviewed this for the adopt a chef contest.

3 stars: Some people liked it, some didn't. A solid base recipe that I will make again, but I will probably experiment a little to see if I can improve it.
2 stars: OK, but nobody really liked it-people nibbled at it and the leftovers went uneaten.
1 star: This dish was thrown away uneaten, and it's not worth trying to "fix".
