    The zucchini boats above are wonderful and do scratch the pizza itch nicely. I made a variation on this a while back. Thinly sliced Zucchini tomatoes and eggplant layered into a casserole with basil and oregano topped with mozzarella cheese and baked at 400 for about 45 minutes.

    Next time I make this I might add in some mushrooms and olives because I love those on a pizza.

    Oh Yum! That makes me think of Eggplant Parmesan...those toppings do sound tasty for a pizza.

    @ ge105 - I like the portobello mushroom idea. I'll give that a try!

    Everything else you can change quite easily I feel except the crust. Toppings are always personalized but it's the crust that has me thinking.

    I saw one on here recently that was pretty much cauliflower with Parmesan as the crust. Seems like it did the job!

    I made this one once. It did the job and wasn't too cauliflowery--It doesn't hold shape, though. Usually needs to be eaten with a fork because it crumbles when you pick it up.

    The cauliflower crust is a bit of work, but it's a delicious comfort food.

    I tried a cauliflower crust before after watching some how-to videos. It tasted great, but I had to eat it with a fork so I probably failed miserably at making it.

    Did you squeeze the water out of the cauliflower? On the other hand, if it tasted great, who cares how you ate it?
