Description
This Upside Down Egg White Pizza is a delicious and light twist on traditional pizza, combining fluffy egg whites with a crescent roll crust. Perfect for a quick and healthy meal, it features a flavorful ranch seasoning and melted low-fat mozzarella cheese, baked to golden perfection in just 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Crust
- 1 (8-oz.) can crescent rolls (reduced-fat or regular)
Egg Mixture
- 2.5 cup egg whites (600g)
- 1 Tbsp ranch seasoning mix (or 1 tsp each of onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper)
Topping
- 3/4 cup low-fat shredded mozzarella cheese (84g)
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Form crust: Open the crescent roll dough and place it along the bottom of the baking dish. Press down firmly to spread and even out the dough across the bottom and partially up the sides, sealing the seams as much as possible to form a solid crust.
- Mix egg whites and seasoning: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites and ranch seasoning mix until well combined and slightly fluffy. Alternatively, shake the egg white containers before pouring over the crust and then sprinkle the ranch seasoning on top.
- Pour and bake egg whites: Pour the seasoned egg whites evenly over the crescent roll crust. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the egg whites are fully cooked and the crescent roll crust starts to turn golden brown.
- Add cheese and finish baking: Remove from the oven, evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the cooked egg whites and crust, and return it to the oven. Bake for an additional few minutes, just until the cheese melts and becomes slightly bubbly.
Notes
- To add more flavor, try adding your favorite pizza toppings before adding the cheese.
- Ensure the egg whites are well mixed with the ranch seasoning for a consistent taste throughout.
- Use reduced-fat or regular crescent rolls depending on your dietary preference.
- Watch the oven closely during the final bake to prevent the cheese from burning.
- For a low-sodium version, use a homemade ranch seasoning with less salt.
