  2. 2

    added about 1/3 cup in this way, pour the rest of the liquid into the eggs. Add the remaining cream. Add salt and pepper to this sauce and stir it into the pasta. Add the cheeses to the pasta and stir again. Put the mixture in the casserole dish. Dot with the butter and bread crumbs. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes or until the top begins to brown (do not let the bread crumbs get too dark). Soft-Crust Pizza Note: If you like soft, chewy pizza, here is a low-carb version that will please you. Soft and thicker crusts require more dough, though, which makes the carb count rise. Make this pizza an occasional treat – perhaps to keep you from running to a pizza parlor or calling for delivery. Regular pizza dough usually calls for about 3 cups of flour (if you want to make pizza at home). You can make a big pizza with all that flour, but one slice of a 16-inch pizza could have 34.0 grams of carb just for the crust. You can see what you are up against. Regular pizzas are true carb killers. This crust has 7.7 grams of carb per serving. SERVING SIZE,1 slice (12-inch pizza). CARBS PER SERVING, (CRUST ONLY): 7.7 grams of carb. NUMBER OF SERVINGS: 8.
