    I would try it once to see what it tasted like; however, give me real pizza any day of the week.

    Cauliflower bake with sauce and mozzarella is absolutely delicious-in the same way that eggplant Parmesan or zucchini lasagna is delicious. But it is, in no way, shape, or form PIZZA!

    as an italian, I find the bolded part offensive :)

    Italian myself! You'd be surprised, "cauliflower pizza" is actually very good. And now I want eggplant parm. And pizza. I need to move back to NJ

    Lol, I remember always hearing about how mashed cauliflower with butter and milk would taste EXACTLY if not better than mashed potatoes. Um, for me, nope, nope nope. Yuk!

    Cauliflower crust pizza is right up there with taco pizza. If I want a taco I will eat a taco, if I want cauliflower I will eat cauliflower but leave my pizza alone!

    Actually, I really really like zucchini boats and they are sooo much easier to prep. Most of us tend to have impulse cravings for pizza and this allows you to make it fast and its super healthy. A zucchini has like 30 calories for the whole thing so the bulk of your calories are on the toppings and sauce. Skim milk cheese really helps keep that down and my meal is usually around 200 cals for a plate full of pizza.

    If the zucchini is small, cut them in half, If they are fairly big, cut them in 3rds of 4ths. Note that you might need to eat it with a knife and fork if you cut it more than once.

    Bake it at 350 (covered with foil) for 30 minutes then 5 minutes uncovered.

    Also, if you don't mind a few extra calories, use flour tortillas for the crust. They are around 80-140 cals. assemble it like a typical pizza BUT make sure you crisp it up for like 5 minutes in the oven before you start it because it will get soggy if you don't. Just bake it until the cheese is melted at whatever heat.

    I think it was an adaptation of a paleo recipe like this http://eatdrinkpaleo.com.au/cauliflower-broccoli-halloumi-fritters/

    I think I preferred the feta instead of the halloumi and probably adjusted the proportions and cut out the ghee but I'm more of a 'taste it and see' cook .. I certainly added the onion into it (red onion chopped fine, no pre-cooking)
