(Gluten free too.)

Okiegirl1 shared this on facebook yesterday, it looked good, so I decided it would be a great way to end the weekend...I'm so glad she found the recipe!! Since she isn't here as much as I am, I thought I'd share it with my other low carb mates here. (You can thank Okie next time you see her though.)

I made this tonight and everyone who ate it almost fell over backwards in amazement that it was made out of cauliflower rather than a flour dough.

I made it a thin crust pizza b/c that is what I like, topped with sauce, mozzarella, spices and some grated parm. The middle was a bit soft so we used forks to get to the crusts, which were so crusty and fantastic it made up for the soft middle. (I'm sure I can tweek it some way to fix that little hiccup...less eggs (I used duck) and more cheese?)

Two average to large heads of cauliflower = 9 cups give or take of riced cauliflower. I riced it all and then froze the rest in pre-measured amounts.

( One word of caution, grease your pan well. )

P.S. Wifezilla mentioned the zucchini bread "doughs" found in this blog are also yummy.

Sounds good

I have grilled zucchini, sliced the long way, with pizza toppings in the past. Super tasty!

Sounds good, never tried a veggie based pizza crust. Can you actually pick it up and eat it like a slice of reg.pizza dough pizza, or do you just eat it off a plate with fork..?

You can, however I think with veggies etc loaded on top, it may get too heavy for that. We used forks for the center and picked it up as we got near the crusts. Kid tested and approved, so it is a winner here and definitely will be added to the weekly menu.

Having the leftovers for breakfast, YUM!
