    Made this for dinner this evening. Won't be making it again. Despite loads of spray on the baking pan, it stuck and had to be scrapped onto our plates.

    It tasted OK, but would have been better as a "snack" as it was far from filling. We walked away from the table hungry.

    I added two ounces of cooked italian sausage that almost doubled the calorie count. Frankly, I could have made a tomato and green pepper scramble that would have been more satisfying for fewer calories. :cry:

    as you'll notice in my first pic my crust is on wax paper to cook the first time, when i take it out for toppings i take it off the wax paper...

    at just a lil over 300 cal with the toppings i included and about 10" big.... I found it quite filling about equivalent of a healthy chicken and veggies with a lil rice meal except for when im craving pizza.

    can also use the *crust* to make taco shells :O)

    sorry you didn't find it satisfying but on it's own or with a big salad i think it's fabulous!
  • I made these over the weekend. You should have lined the pan w/ parchment paper, the crust slides right off. I made 5 pizzas & my family loved them. I admit I was a bit skeptical, after you mix everything together & spread it on the pan it does not look very good, but the end result is awesome. It even tears apart just like bread, it is the craziest thing! My son just put EVOO & parmesean cheese on top of his, it was so good!

    Tried this last week and my hubby said it was AWESOME! That is big compliments coming from him since he is the pickiest pizza eater out there!!

    We just used some low fat turkey pepperoni, olives and mushrooms and some home made spag sauce for the toppings.

    I will definitely make again!! It was the bomb!!

    Thanks for posting... here are my pics..

    I wasn't sure how to "rice" cauliflower, but I found a good video here:

    Tried it ... liked it. I actually felt very good about eating pizza for a change because you can't get much healthier than this.

    Awesome idea. Thanks for turning me on to it. :happy:

    Hmmm How is everyone having success with this? I made it and it stuck to the parchment so badly I couldn't eat the crust!

    Used 1 cup of cauli-rice, 1 beaten egg and 1/4 cup of light cheddar. 450F until the edges burned. I sprayed the parchment ahead of time as well. Anyone else have this problem??
