    Thank you for the picture. I have always been extremely skeptical of this cauliflower crust nonsense, but that.... looks shockingly delicious. o_O

    I have tried this many times before, you really can't tell the difference. One word of warning... NO LEFTOVERS. Cauliflower does get more bitter the older it gets, so just eat it all!!!!

    I used Western Family Mexican Blend Cheese only because that is what my grandson loves. I found a calorie count in MFP for Cauliflower Pizza Crust but I added up my own ingredients and came up with a different amount. I got ( per slice (1/8) 49.625 cal, 1.25 carb, 3.37 fat, 3.75 protien. I used also Generic spice oregano, and great value minced garlic... This if for crust only, OH and I used the whites of Real Eggs.

    I put roughly 1.5 cups of cheese for topping (didn't measure because it was for a skinny kid and a few dole pinnaple chunks for his mom. But you can add your own and add that amount to the crust to figure the stats.

    Did you put a lot of cheese to mask the Caulfiower taste and make it taste more like pizza? I normally eat pizza w/o cheese and lots of veggies but I feel like you would need cheese on this kind of thing? Did you find that to be true, I guess pizza w/o cheese and crust really wouldn't be pizza tho lol

    haha, it'd be imitation pizza. No crust, no cheese. Just veggies, pizza sauce (another veggie) . It'd be vegetarian friendly. =)
    Actually, I've never tried homemade pizza without cheese. Or pizza in general without cheese. Can you ask restaurants to hold the cheese?? I want to try that sometime.

    My mom HATES cheese, she knows if there is even on shred in a dish. She orders pizza without cheese all the time! And, it is actually pretty decent :)

    I am so sorry, I haven't checked on this post until today...I thought everyone already knew the recipe and I was the only one who didn't...here is the excact recipe

    http://dailydishrecipes.com/cauliflower-pizza-crust-recipe/

    I steamed a head of cauliflower for my steamer it was about 10 minutes and the cauliflower was firm but I could fork it slightly but it was not soft. I then measured out what I needed and then just kept the rest for snacks. I doubled the recipe and sprayed the baking sheet with Pam really good. It had a hint of cauliflower but not much. I could hold it in my hand without it breaking up. I asked my grandson today did he want me to make another cauliflower pizza, he stopped dead in his tracks and said "what did you say" realizing what I had said I answered him "Do you want me to make another pizza" He says "you said something else" scrambling for something to say I responded to him " I said, do you want another cotton flour pizza" he starts walking again and say "Oh, yeah I do"
    Sheesh I almost blew it....


    Thank you!

    oh yeah, while copying this recipe for a friend I realized I had doubled the cauliflower but kept the rest the same, that is what gave me the larger size, the states I gave you do not reflect the extra cup of cauliflower.

    I made this one time, and my picky hubs and boy both thought it was pretty good, but also my son thought it was "weird". Haven't made it again due to it being so labor intensive.

    The pizza stone helps to have it be not soggy.
