Tarte Flambee in France, Flammkuchen in Germany,
my version of it is pizza dough spread with creme frache (or soft white
farmers cheese) with a tsp of nutmeg stirred into it, coursely chopped
slices of Canadian bacon (I use 0.4 lb), then diceded onion to blanket
everything. Bake as a normal pizza.

It's simple, tasty, and a whole lot less calories than standard
"cheesey" pizzas. Like a quiche, serve with dry riesling or
gewurztraminer for maximum ethnic experience.
