KETO PIZZA- GRILLED CHICKEN & SPINACH
This formula is totally stunning, what an incredible flavor mix! I am so happy I can eat pizza on keto.
My pizza has 688 calories, and 5 NET carbs! Presently, don't drop when you see the fat sum. The fat is assume to be high and the determined sum is for the entire pizza. 54 grams. 27 grams for every serving-2 pieces. You can without much of a stretch cut back on this by utilizing light cream cheddar and milk rather than half and half.
However, in the event that you are following the keto method for eating you comprehend that this fat sum is superbly alright!
