Took a long time to make but worth the effort.

    I want to do it but my laziness wins over every single time.

    Try zucchini pizza crust. Even better. And easier/faster.

    That looks pretty good. I’ve been meaning to try making a pizza crust with protein powder, but maybe I should try a cauliflower crust too.

    Made it and it was delicious. Pulsed the cauliflower in my food processor instead of grating it because I am lazy and that worked fine. Left overs were really nice for breakfast.

    I love my homemade pizza dough too much to forgo it. Saying that I did just try out cauliflower 'rice' which worked well with my curry.

    Can you actually pick that up sliced like a real pizza or is it just a crispy base for toppings?
    If you do it right you can pick them up

    I like this one Cauliflower Crust because it's not loaded with cheese like a lot of the others. Some have up to an entire cup of cheese in the crust!

    Brilliant thank you. I will definitely give that a try. I love pizza but after seeing the stats in the food diary need to give it up entirely or find after way around it. This is so worth a try.

    @noclady1995 it was firm not chewy at all though. I researched all the recipes online / google and the going theme is really baking the crust till almost burnt. Next time i do it i will make it thinner and bake longer to get a crisp to it. My trick that made it taste like a real crust to me that i didn't see in their recipes was after spraying the foil with cooking spray i put a thin layer of powdered parmesan cheese before spreading out the "dough"

    I might have to give it another try. The one time I did it, my favorite thing about it, was the toppings. Probably could have baked it longer to make the 'crust' better.

    I found using a flour tortilla, and cutting out the cheese completely to be a good substitute. Use a light spaghetti sauce, some grilled chicken, baby spinach and sliced tomato as toppings and bake at 475 for 5 minutes...lastly, drizzle some hot sauce. Yummy!

    Inspired by you, I made broccoli pizza crust today. Should have read your tip on using the parmesan on the base. Next time. It was yummy though! Thanks for the inspiration!
