Yummmy Low carb pizza!!

It was really necessary for me to come up with a recipe which did not involve fish,this seems to have eventually turned into more of a fish recipe blog.Ok now a lil' reflection on pizza. When I was a kid it was a delight to gorge on a pizza.It was something which did not seem to be a sin then. But now the mere thot of having a slice drives through a series of guilts and condemning oneself.Ever since my husband has been low carbing I have been trying various recipes for him which could be made low carb.This recipes is just one of them.I have been trying various low carb recipes from Linda's low carb website. The recipes of the crust is hers. The toppings are purely inspired by the pizzas made at home.Yum. Just a word of caution the crust is made up of Flax seeds and need to be consumed carefully as they may be a lil' heavy on digesting. So go lil easy.Here's all you'll need for this recipe.
