    What is riced cauliflower?

    Basically its blended raw cauliflower (so it looks like little bits of rice)

    I've made this cauliflower pizza 3 times now already and its great! My boyfriend enjoys it as he loves pizza but we are botht trying to lose weight.
    And for anyone out there that doesn't want to give it a go caus ethey don't like cauliflower it reallly DOESNT taste like cauliflower at all! He HATES cauliflower but he loves this! :)

    Thanks for asking and for answering! :-) But one more question....do I just chop my cauliflower and then run it through my food processor to create this riced effect?!?

    I've seen a lot of positive reviews on this, and I really want to try it. Only thing is, my food processor has no blade at the moment. Can I use a cheese grater to get the same consistency? Sorry if it's been answered before, but I'm tired and feeling lazy so I'm not scrolling right now. ;)

    I tried making this Friday evening for dinner, but when I put the riced cauliflower in the microwave (per the directions), it burnt to a crisp. Luckily I had a frozen pizza in the freezer for my sons (since I had already told them we were eating pizza for dinner) and I just had a salad. I'd be willing to try it again, but any recommendations on what to do after I put the cauliflower through the food processor (it's fresh, not frozen cauliflower)?

    Amy...you have to make sure your bowl is covered, that you use no water, and cook it for 4-5 mins. Is your microwave high powered, because that may be the problem? It really is good...its worth the redo! ;)

    Thank you for answering!!! I didn't have it covered and I think our microwave might cook faster, so I will try again this week at around 4 minutes and see if I get a more successful result :)

    Yes, it says you can use a grater for the same consistency. Hope that helps :)

    Looks delicious! How was the crust? Did you need to use a fork or was it able to be held? Just curious as to how to prepare my 8 year old :)

    unfortunately i had to use a fork because i used 3 cups of cauliflower, 1 egg and 1 mozzarella instead of 1 cup of cauliflower, 1 egg, 1 mozzarella. i didn't stick to a recipe :/
    but it turned out very yummy!

    This is a favorite at our house, even my picky husband loves it. I was skeptical at first because I hate cauliflower but this crust doesn't taste like normal cauliflower at all. I use a pizza pan with the tiny holes in it and the crust comes out nice and crispy.
