Anyone have a great Cauliflower pizza crust recipe?

I like this one because it has far less cheese than most of the recipes out there. http://www.slenderkitchen.com/recipe/cauliflower-crust-pizza/javascript;;0

I think they're all vile, I have not yet made one that was acceptable to me. I really like this crust from a website called Your Lighter Side though, a LOT.0

Ooh, thanks, that does look good, and I like that it has less cheese in it (maybe that way I can even put a little cheese on as a topping). I'll try this!0 -

Wow, that looks like a great recipe! I will have to try it if I can find the right cheese - in my country I am not sure about getting low-moisture mozzarella. What do you think, is there any other cheese I could substitute for that?0 -
My gripe isn't the flavor, but they never hold together. I'm working on a ground chicken-cauliflower combination that I'm hoping turns out great.0

If you are searching to save calories then stop now. These subs usually have more and take way more work than needed. If trying to avoid gluten then just get gluten free dough. You either want a pizza or you dont lol
Well said. You can just have cauliflower, tomato and cheese. If you want pizza, just have a real pizza.

I actually wasn't asking for advice about what I eat, I was asking for a specific kind of recipe. I need to avoid all refined flour as much as possible because of insulin resistance, so "real pizza" is not a good option for me.0 -

Again, I wasn't asking for advice about whether or not to eat flour-crust pizza.0 -
I make them about every other week. Nothing special. Head of Cauliflower, steamed and processed real fine. When it cools, I squeeze out all the excess water. To this I add, Oregano, Red Pepper Flakes, 2 eggs and parmesan cheese. Then I put in the fridge for about an hour. Then, with a fork, I press it onto a baking sheet that is already oiled. It's thin....like a cracker. Bake at about 400 degrees until it is cooked through. I let it cool before I add my toppings and bake again.
I don't use mine as a pizza dough though. I usually top with caramelized red onions and mushrooms that I have cooked tender. My wife loves it.0 -

That sounds great! How much parmesan cheese do you use? Another good one to try, thanks!0 -

I made this tonight! It was SO GOOD, I ate 7/8 of it (a whopping 185 cal) topped with fresh tomatoes and a little more mozzarella. Yum! Thanks for sharing it!0 -

Thanks! I'd never thought of making mini ones, that's a fun idea!0 -
I love this cauliflower crust. Although I don't use it as such (I like it plain, as is
).
Have you found a more efficient way of squeezing out all the liquid? That part is so troublesome that I end up not having this as much as I like.0 -
Have you tried this recipe?

It probably didn't taste like pizza crust because crust is bread and CAULIFLOWER IS NOT BREAD! Nor is cauliflower a chicken wing, rice, potatoes, or pasta. All of these cauliflower hacks are ridiculous - none of it is going to taste nearly as good as the real thing. And all the hassle for an inferior meal? No thanks. So I just eat a little less of the real thing. I do use cauliflower for bulking things up, like hash browns or oats, and getting some micros in but completely substituting one thing for something completely different rarely works.0

Aw, Lyndsey... did anyone in this thread say they were looking for something bread-like at all?
It sounds like you really love bread and should just keep on eating it. Some people don't want bread, and do want cauliflower because they like it, and that's good, too.0
