Ingredients

1 lb ground turkey
1 egg
2 Tbsp parmesan cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning

Toppings

¼ cup pizza sauce
½ cup fresh mozzarella grated
¼ cup white button mushrooms sliced
¼ cup pepperoni sliced
Fresh basil

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine turkey, egg, parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.
Line a sheet pan or cookie sheet with parchment paper. Place the turkey mixture in the center, top with another piece of parchment, and flatten evenly into a 1/4" thick crust.
Bake at 350°F for 10–15 minutes until the crust starts to firm up.
Remove, add your toppings, and return to the oven for another 10- 15 minutes until everything is golden brown and melty.
Cut into slices and enjoy!

Notes

Drain off excess liquid from the turkey before mixing to help the crust stay firm and crisp.

Pre-bake the crust before adding toppings—this keeps it from getting soggy.

Use a pizza pan or cast iron pan for that restaurant-style finish.

Season the crust generously—don’t skimp on herbs or even a dash of onion powder or garlic powder.

Top it lightly—too many toppings = a soggy situation. Keep it balanced.
