Caesar Salad Ground Chicken Pizza
This Caesar Salad Ground Chicken Pizza is my lighter, macro-friendly twist on the viral trend! I’ve combined my go-to egg wraps with lean ground turkey and cheese to create a low-carb, high-protein crust and topped it with a crisp, refreshing layer of my lightened-up Greek yogurt Caesar salad.

Ingredients
- 1 Trader Joe’s or EatCrepini Egg wrap
- 4 oz 99% lean ground chicken or turkey 112g
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp cheddar cheese grated (14g)
- 2 cups romaine lettuce chopped (150)
- 2 Tbsp shaved parmesan 10g
- Freshly cracked pepper
Greek Yogurt Caesar Dressing (Serves 6)
- ½ cup nonfat Greek yogurt 113g
- 2 Tbsp. lite mayo 30g
- 2 Tbsp. lemon juice 30g
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil 15g
- 1 Tbsp. dijon mustard 15g
- 1 Tbsp. pickle juice or sub vinegar (15g)
- 2 frozen garlic cubes or minced cloves
- ½ Tbsp. worcestershire sauce 7g
- 2 Tbsp. grated parmesan 10g
- 1 tsp anchovy paste 5g
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Lay your wrap flat on a cutting board or plate and place several small pieces of the ground chicken all over the wrap to get it well distributed. Smash the meat and spread as best as you can to cover most of the wrap. It will be VERY thin. Season with salt, garlic, and a little pepper.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over high heat with a spritz of oil. When it’s nice and hot, lay the wrap meat-side down on the pan and cook for two minutes. Remove the wrap and sprinkle cheddar cheese directly on the hot (nonstick) pan. Immediately add the wrap back, this time meat-side up. Use a spatula to smash the wrap and shimmy it a bit to sort of pick up the cheese. Let it cook until the cheese is browned and does not stick to the pan. Turn the heat down and let it continue to cook a few more minutes until crispy.
- Whisk or blend dressing ingredients until creamy and smooth.
- For one serving, add 2 cups (150g) lettuce to a bowl and toss with about 3 Tbsp (41g) of the dressing and 2 Tbsp (10g) shaved parmesan.
- Remove your wrap from the pan and top with tossed Caesar salad. Finish with a little more salt and pepper, cut into pizza wedges and enjoy! I like to add thick sliced tomatoes to mine for a little more to bite into.
Notes
GF/DF: Make sure you’re using a gluten-free worcestershire sauce to keep this gluten-free. I haven’t made this dairy-free, but I love to use Forager Plant Based Sour Cream in place of yogurt, and you can swap in a dairy-free parmesan, or simply skip it. I’d suggest simply skipping the cheddar on the base.
