Very Low Carb Pizza Crust
Yesterday, a friend of mine posted a link in FB to a pizza crust made out of cauliflower. It looked good and since I was going grocery shopping this AM, I bought stuff to try it. I recalculated her nutrition content based on the brands I used in mine and mine had 5 grams of carbs per slice – not bad for pizza!
On the article the person wrote about it, she linked to her original article. The original one was a 4 serving pizza and the 2nd one was 8 servings. I made the 4 slice but actually cut mine into 6 slices. The 2 versions are also slightly different because she used frozen cauliflower in one and fresh in the other.
The first article also has a link to her article on how to make the cauliflower rice. I have a salad shooter that shreds stuff so that was easy for me to do. If you haven’t made the cauliflower rice before, it does shrink down a lot. I had almost 2 cups that I put in the microwave and didn’t have much more than a cup when it came out.
In reading down thru the comments, some people had problems with it sticking to the pan and she suggested using parchment paper, which I did and no sticking.
She also recommended letting the crust get cool before you put the toppings on and cooking the toppings. She said the crust will be firmer. I didn’t do that and it was pretty soft but still good.
This is the first time I ever made anything out of cauliflower like this. I think it came out really good and I will definitely do it again!
