The "Viral" Crispy Rice Paper Pizza (Low-Carb, High-Protein) This method uses an oven-safe pan to start on the stove and finish under a broiler (or in the oven), ensuring the base gets crispy and the toppings get perfectly melted and cooked. Why this works better: Sturdiness: Using 4 sheets of rice paper in an overlapping pattern creates a much stronger base. Crispiness: The initial fry creates a crispy bottom, and a quick blast of heat from the oven/broiler crisps the edges and cooks the top. No Flipping Required: Building it in an oven-safe pan means you never have to risk a messy flip. Ingredients For the "Crust": 4 sheets of rice paper 2 large eggs 1 tsp sesame oil or olive oil 1 tsp soy sauce (or coconut aminos for soy-free) - your great umami idea! Pinch of salt and black pepper Optional: 1/4 tsp garlic powder or Italian seasoning for a more classic pizza flavor. For the Toppings: 2-3 tbsp low-sugar marinara or pizza sauce 1/2 cup shredded low-moisture moz...
