Saturday night, pizza night! This fathead pizza do is amazing, it tastes so yummy and cheesy that you want to eat just because it’s that good.
I tried a few combinations of this fathead pizza dough and to keep the calories per serving down I use semi-fat minced cottage cheese as it’s very low in calories. It’s a 250 g square block that I first found in a Polish shop. For this recipe, I only use half of it. These mini pizza make a great dinner, and you can also reheat them next day for a quick and tasty lunch.
