Wonderful. Excellent!!! Add onion, and mushrooms to it. Made the package of Alfredo sauce. Out minced garlic and parsley in the dough. Baked 30 minutes and let sit 10 with mozzarella on top and it all came together great. Definitely a keeper.

Was a good idea. But I would have to say it was too salty. Maybe I will use a pizza sauce if I make it again.

My parents are on a low-carb kick, so I was trying to find some recipes that would fit into their diet. I made this recipe without the bisquick and also added some mushrooms. It was fantastic!!
