    ok to answer some questions a cup = 250ml if that helps? or 8oz

    egg beaters are cartoned egg whites

    and yes there's some oregano and parsley but the green you see is because i made cauli-rice yesterday with broccoli in it so that ended up in my crust lol!

    the before pic looks gross but the cooked pic looks delish !!!!!! i could eat all that right now !!! lol

    being from the UK I have never heard of egg beaters ??? did u put herbs in too ?

    Just use real eggs. There is simply no reason to eat processed eggs which is what egg beaters are...........blech! The real thing has WAY more nutrition without the chemical yuck!

    Still not really getting what "cauli-rice" is. I read the original recipe you posted, my best guess is cauliflower steamed until soft then you use a cheese grater to shred it - correct?

    EDIT: NM, I clicked your MFP link and see that its just cauli put into a food processor until it resembles rice then microwaved for 2 minutes (without water).

    Ok so I did the cauli-rice yesterday (yum!) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/130435-my-yummy-meatball-and-rice-dinner

    and here's the pizza crust! I didn't follow the recipe that you'll get if you google it exact, i cut a lot of the cheese (from 1 cup to 1oz) to cut some cals and used egg beaters, so this whole pizza is 308 cals! Next time I will make it with goat cheese mozza (just used light marble cuz that's what i had). Was YUM!!!! Didn't miss the bread at all!

    Hopefully it doesn't cut my photos too much, i didn't resize them.

    cooked

    with toppings

    Edit:
    here's the original recipe http://blog.yourlighterside.com/2009/05/low-carb-pizza-dough-cauliflower.html

    my whole pizza was 308... just the crust was 145 >>> with my changes though!

    1cup of cauli rice - i use raw cauliflower processed to size of rice, then nuked 2 min

    like I said I only used 1 ounce of cheese vs 1 cup
    and 2tbsp of eggbeaters vs 1 egg or 1/4 cup egg beaters

    put on parchment, bake at 450 til dark, edges look burnt.

    take out add toppings, then pop under broiler.

    if you want it to be "hand holdable" make sure you've cooked it long enough, but also let the final product cool about 5 min before eating it.... I am willing to sacrifice it being hand holdable for so few cals!

    the pizza is about 9 inches
