Author Notes
The Keto Margherita Pizza is like a fancy version of a classic pizza that's good for you. It has a special crust made with cheese and almond flour that's crispy and tasty. On top, there's fresh mozzarella cheese, tomato sauce, and basil leaves that make it super flavorful.
This pizza is great because it's low in carbs and high in good fats, which is perfect for people on a special diet. It tastes just like the traditional Margherita pizza but without all the extra carbs. It's a delicious and healthy twist on a favorite dish that you can enjoy guilt-free.
