    So happy I found this thread! Am craving pizza and was searching for a good recipe. I have celiacs disease, so no flour for this girl....

    fwiw: I also love polenta pizza crusts (for the non-carb conscious eaters). Tasty!

    Its so yummy! But i LOVE veggies ;) to help with the consistency some i add a bit of cheese and wheat flour with whatever veggie- not much but just enough to help hold it together!

    The zucchini one calls for a bit of almond meal, I didn't have that so I ground up some flax seeds and used that. Between that, and the egg, and a tiny bit of cheese it stayed together really well.

    When I've done the cauliflower crust, I use my juicer to remove all the liquid (fyi don't drink the juice it tastes kinda like vomit). It leaves the pulp ultra dry for making the crust.

    @shan11180 - we suspect celiac in one of my children....We have made coconut flour crust pizza that was outstanding! There are a few recipes online.

    I haven't checked Aldi's yet. I get mine from SAMs, but it's becoming easier to find in health food stores and sections. It is not carb free, but I tolerate small amounts is a morning muffin. Be sure to read up if you try it - it is not equally substitutable for wheat. The pizza crust was excellent! Slightly cakier texture than a traditional crust but very good. I found it a little less labor intensive than the cauliflower crusts, but again it will have a few more carbs.

    Its actually good. I have made one from zucchini also and I preferred that one. The trick with them both is that you must get as much of the water out as possible.
