Pizza Zola Style

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe. See notes below about Z3 toppings. Photo submitted by Plan Z dieter Nancy.

Servings: Makes 4 “normal” sized pizza slices

Ingredients:

• mozzarella
• pizza toppings
• any Z3 (ZReboot) approved toppings such as: ground beef, green peppers, onions, bacon, ham, pineapple (caution), see Zola manual for more ideas on Z3 approved veggies and meats

Instructions:

In a large NON-STICK sauté pan, put in a ½” thick layer of shredded mozzarella cheese. The exact amount depends on how large your pan is. In a large (12”) NON-STICK sauté pan would be about 2 cups. Heat the pan to medium. The cheese will begin to melt. Just let it sit and continue to melt on medium. Don’t stir. Don’t touch.

When the pizza starts to get a golden rim around it, begin to inch your spatula under the edges. Go all the way around the pizza to keep it from sticking. Just be gentle so you don’t poke a hole in it. After you inch the spatula around the edge you can add your toppings. You don’t want too much or too many toppings because it will weigh the pizza down and it won’t cook thoroughly. Just keep it to three ingredients and leave spaces around the items rather than pile them all up.

Continue to cook the pizza on medium until the bottom is a golden brown. The cheese on the top will be all melted and your ingredients will stick to the cheese. This takes a good 5 – 8 minutes. You’ll be drooling from the smell but contain yourself.

Gently coax the pizza out of the sauté pan and onto a cutting board. The spatula can be eased underneath and tilt the pan so it slides out.

Let the pizza sit on the cutting board for at least five minutes while it begins to cool. The amazing thing is the cheese will stiffen and your pizza will act like it has a crust when it has none. Cut with your pizza cutter and eat with a fork or pick up pieces and eat just like you would if there were a crust.

I got this idea from an internet recipe. I hope you love it.

Enjoy!
