Keto Pizza Casserole
When I first started following a low carb, ketogenic lifestyle, I refused to give up the foods that I loved. I just knew that I would not be successful with my weight loss if I took all the foods I loved off the table. The second I tell myself that I can't have something, it becomes my sole focus. Therefore, my only option was to get creative and recreate some of my favorite dishes into a template that worked for me and fit into my new lifestyle change.
I went straight to work creating low carb pizza variations, low carb and gluten free mac and cheese, low carb potato substitutions etc. It made staying on track a lot easier and I never felt deprived. Let's just say that this mentality has resulted in a lot of pizza recipes on my site. Some of my favorites are the Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza, Pizza Stuffed Peppers, Pepperoni Pizza Pinwheels and the Supreme Pizza Frittata. YES, even pizza for breakfast!! Why not?
In addition to this Supreme Pizza Casserole, Check out some of my other favorite low carb casserole recipes:
- Keto Big Mac Casserole
- Cheesy Smoked Sausage and Cabbage Casserole
- Eggs Benedict Casserole
- Buffalo Chicken Cauliflower Mac and Cheese
- Three Cheese Ham and Broccoli Casserole
- Cabbage Noodle Tuna Casserole

This is so dang clever! I consistently fail at low carb ersatz pizza crusts but I can imagine there's a great flavor blending with this. Thanks for your brilliance...
Lori Lynn says
This recipe looks really good! I find it slightly funny though, that there's an ad for ordering pizza online on top of your blog post, when you have a more healthy pizza to eat! LOL
Lettie Cox says
This recipe was a huge hit for dinner last night! My husband who has confessed to be able to eat pizza everyday for life.gave it two thumbs up and second helpings. There's so much you could with this, change it up to make your favorite pizza or make it ahead for a quick meal. Definately a blog post about this in the future!
Thanks so much for sharing.
Lola says
As someone who could easily eat a whole can of diced black olives, 10 seems awfully skimpy. 🙂
I've got this one on my shopping list for a weekend dinner!
Tammy says
Me too Lola!
GiGi says
OMG.... Made this for dinner, huge hit... My 10 yr old grand- daughter asked if we could have it again tomorrow. She also asked if she could make a smaller one with the things she likes, personal pizza. I told her not a problem... My husband said if there are left overs he wants it for lunch tomorrow...

Whole family approved! I love it! Thank you for letting me know. I love hearing things like that
Fransa Burger says
Hi! The pizza sauce calls for a can of tomatoe sauce. What exactly is that? ( im from South Africa) here you get cans of chopped tomatoes, tom puree/paste. The tomato sauce we get here is like your Ketchup.
Peace Love and Low Carb says
I would say it is probably the tomato puree.
Maria says
Pizza is a food group. Yes it is. Question, and it may sound like I should know, but I have to admit that I'm a novice to baking (anything), and only within the last year have I used my oven (after like 25 years, don't cringe, roll your eyes, or shake your head...oh, ok, go ahead , I laugh about it). Oh, yes the question: what size casserole dish? 8x8, 9x13? Pizza for breakfast, lunch and/or dinner. Yes please. Thank you, thank you, thank you.!
Rebecca Strahin says
Fabulous. I scaled down the ingredients to serve one but was still great.
Brittney says
Hi! I just wanted to state that this was the first recipe that I made from your site and it was absolutely delicious! My husband and I loved it. Thanks so much! 🙂
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Thanks so much for the kind words. I really appreciate it.
Ambervision says
You have 4 new (really big) fans who were previously pretty attached to Friday night pizza from the local pizza joint. Mama, Husband, 6 year old and 11 month old approved! The kid said "2 thumbs up double wink" the baby said "nom nom". Thank you!
Barb says

KalynsKitchen says
Sounds delicious and easy to make!
Kristi says
So you don't "rice" the cauliflower? You want them chunky like big florets?
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Yep. But you can rice them if you like. I'm sure that would be delicious.
Pamela says
Looks damn good to taste. . . ! I am gonna make this in the evening and surprise everyone. 🙂
Darlene Steele says
That recipe looks fabulous. my question: do I cook the bacon party first?
Karen says
Canadian bacon is like ham.....already cooked...so no, don't re-cook the bacon. And yes.....bacon is a party all by itself! 🙂

Erika says
Do you think I could use frozen cauliflower florets? and if so would I just follower same directions? I have 5 or 6 bags in my freezer currently so thought I might try it with those if possible . Either way i will try this out. It sounds delicious!
Momof4 says
I am wondering the same thing. Has anyone tried it with frozen cauliflower?
Renee says
I made this for dinner tonight. Very delicious!
Brooke Crozier says
I am making this today and already know it will be delicious! I am obsessed with your Craveable Keto cookbook and your 30-minute Ketogenic Cooking cookbook! Some of my faves - pizza eggs,- including your pizza sauce recipe (so easy!), dill chicken salad, skillet parmesan chicken, fish taco bowls, cauliflower rice, spiced slow cooker pork tenderloin, dill pickle coleslaw, cucumber sauce., cauliflower steaks,, . . . I am quite sure I will eventually just have to refer to the entire index of recipes!
ALICE WOLANIN says
This was an easy and time saving recipe to prepare. Enjoyed the aromas flowing from the oven. I did prep the cauliflower into florets the night before.

Brenna says
Has anyone tried to make this ahead and then freeze it ?
Christina says
Favorite new way to eat pizza. It's a nice change from the fathead dough recipes that are everywhere. Whole family approved this one!

Kara Mathys @Wellnessgrit says
Oh my! This supreme pizza was delicious – and so easy to make! Will have to try this for my family. Thanks so much!
Barb says
I made this with frozen cauliflower, thawed first. I didn't think the Canadian bacon would be enough flavor so added Italian sausage. Turned out great! Will add more mozzarella cheese next time, tho.
