Try it as a
Keto Pizza Dip
One of the best things about this recipe is how flexible it is. Omit black olives, add mushrooms, swap the sausage for chicken sausage—customize it to your taste. It also doubles as a crowd-pleasing dip: spoon it into a bowl, layer a little ricotta on the bottom if you like, and serve with raw veggies or low-carb crackers.
If you want lower carbs or fewer calories, choose sugar-free marinara, leaner meats, or reduced-fat cheeses. See the nutrition note below for guidance—I’ve estimated using slightly higher values so you can adjust down if you prefer.
