Mini Primal Pizzas

We did it, we bought our European vacation tickets last night!  Our path is Iceland> Munich, Germany> Zurich, Switzerland> Dijon, France> Paris, France.  Can't even express how excited I am because I haven't ever been to Europe!  We are going mid September through October 1st and will be in Germany during Oktoberfest!  Currently I'm preparing for a full day of dolma making tomorrow and trying to find a good primal recipe for pork chops for tonight's dinner.  Any ideas?  This weekend will be nice and relaxing with only several plans so hopefully I will get tons of cooking in!  Onto the recipe, I adapted this recipe and it was super delicious.

Makes 9 pizzas


The Ingredients

1 pound pastured ground sirloin

1 egg

1 tsp. Italian seasonings

½ tsp. kosher salt

5 Tbs pizza sauce, about 1/2 Tbs. per pizza
  
Toppings: grated mozzarella (primal), un-cured sliced prosciutto, sauted shallots and garlic.


The Process

1.  Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Mix together beef, egg, 1 tsp. Italian seasoning, and salt until well blended.
   
2.  Place a piece of plastic wrap in a wide-mouth mason jar lid and press a scant ¼ cup of the beef mixture to the edge of the ring, forming a small patty. Repeat until all the meat is used.
   
3.  Place the patties on a foil lined jelly-roll pan with edges and bake for 8 minutes.
   
4.  Remove the beef crusts from the oven and dab the tops with paper towels to remove excess grease.

5.  Top each with a 1/2 Tbs. pizza sauce and your desired toppings. Bake another 5 minutes.
   
6.  Eat immediately or allow to cool completely and stack in wide-mouth mason jars.
