This Keto Meatball Alfredo Pizza is a rich, low carb twist on pizza night that's creamy, cheesy, and satisfying. With tender meatballs, creamy Alfredo sauce, and fresh arugula topping, it brings restaurant-style flavor right to your kitchen.
I love making this pizza for family dinners because it works for everyone - those of us eating low carb enjoy it on a keto crust, while others can swap in a traditional pizza dough without missing out.

Keto Meatball Pizza Tips
- Pre-bake the crust to keep it firm under the sauce.
- Use less sauce so the crust doesn't get soggy.
- Cool a few minutes before slicing for cleaner cuts.
- If you don't expect to consume the entire pizza, top only slices you will eat with arugula to prevent soggy greens.
How to Store and Reheat
Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven until warm and crisp - the oven keeps the crust sturdy, unlike the microwave.
