    Cauliflower Crusted Pizza
    White Alfredo with Chicken and Mushrooms


    Did I miss where the cauli-crust recipe was posted? Love the white sauce pizza, would like to try this version.

    Also, Muffin in a Minute? Where can I find the recipe for that one?

    Thanks!!

    The more I read these messages, the more I am leaning toward giving this a try again. But I am concerned about the cholesterol and fat content.

    The fat freaked me out when I first started too. As I read more and more about it I just was convinced that it was nonsense. I feel so much better eating high fat, and the studies back this up. Took me a good month or so to get comfortable with eating this way though, I still thought a heart attack was around the corner.

    As for cholesterol, the cholesterol we eat (e.g. in eggs) has no bearing on serum cholesterol levels. Google it! Tis true!

    You Won’t Believe it’s Cauliflower Pizza Crust
    1 cup cooked, riced cauliflower*
    1 egg
    1 cup mozzarella cheese
    1/2 tsp fennel
    1 tsp oregano
    2 tsp parsley

    **pizza or alfredo sauce

    toppings (make sure meats are cooked)
    mozzarella cheese
    Preheat oven to 450 degrees Farenheit.

    Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray.

    In a medium bowl, combine cauliflower, egg and mozzarella. Press evenly on the pan. Sprinkle evenly with fennel, oregano and parsley.

    Bake at 450 degrees for 12-15 minutes (15-20 minutes if you double the recipe).

    Remove the pan from the oven. To the crust, add sauce, then toppings and cheese.

    Place under a broiler (grill for the Europeans) at high heat just until cheese is melted **.

    Notes:

    *I use frozen cauliflower prepared according to package directions. After cooked and slightly cooled, I shred cauliflower with a cheese grater, and then measure for the recipe. (Don’t pack down the cup with cauliflower. Just fill it with a spoon or the cup itself.)

    ** The pizza sauce I use is Great Value Pizza sauce from Wal-Mart. At only 3 net carbs per quarter cup, you get a lot of punch for little carbohydrate pow.

    *** You can try re-baking the pizza at 450 once you add toppings if desired, but the crust is not quite as crusty. There is a minimal difference, so see what works best for you.

    Nutritional Information for the entire crust:
    calories: 434, fat: 25 g, carbohydrates: 8 (net), 13 if counting all, fiber: 5 g, protein: 41 g.

    Nutritional Information for one serving: 109 calories, 7 grams fat, 2 net carbs, 1.5 grams fiber, 10 grams protein.

    Cooked up a new stir-fry and had it for lunch all this week. Delicious! Thinking about putting it on the menu next week.

    I saw a pic of a mushroom turkey hash and I'd love the recipe to if you have time to post it. :)

    Ingredients include grilled chicken, scrambled eggs, bacon, green beans, red and green bell pepper, mushrooms, and a wonderful sugar-free bottled teriyaki sauce by Seal Sama which is sold on netrition.

    The food looks amazing....I might convert yet. I am trying a low fat diet, but not watching carbs. Can your diet be low fat?
