Craving those meat pizzas all your friends have been ordering lately? Try this recipe out today – this one is just as good, but with half the calories of a normal serving!

Ingredients:

3/4 cup white whole wheat flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup water

2 tablespoons light mayonnaise

1 teaspoon olive oil

10 ounces pulled beef

2 tablespoons sugar-free BBQ sauce

1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced (optional)

1/4 red onion, diced (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 500F.
Add flour, salt, water, and 1 tablespoon light mayonnaise to a food processor.
Pulse 3-4 times until a dough begins to form with plenty of loose flour remaining.
Dump the dough on a flat surface and bring the dough together completely with your hands.
Press into a thin circle, about the same size as the bottom of a 10″ cast iron skillet.
Heat a 10″ cast-iron skillet over medium heat with the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the flattened pizza dough in the skillet. Cook for 4-6 minutes until you start to see some browning on the bottom of the crust. Crust will be somewhat thin, so be careful not to burn it.
Add the other tablespoon of light mayonnaise on top of the crust. Then, spoon the bbq sauce on top, spreading gently. Add the pulled beef and diced vegetables
After the pizza has been in the skillet around 10-12 minutes and is turning golden brown in spots, transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges around the top of the pizza are golden brown.
Carefully transfer the cooked pizza to a flat surface to cool for a few minutes before slicing.
