Cauliflower Pizza Crust

An Atkins friendly alternative to a pizza crust, low in carbs and a moreish meal or snack.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 °F (230 °C).
  2. 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.
  3. Bake at 450 °F for 12-15 minutes (15-20 minutes if you double the recipe).
  4. Reheats nicely and can still be held in the hand, even the next day. Pizza crusts can be frozen after the initial baking and used later. Place under a broiler (grill for the Europeans) at high heat just until cheese melts.
  5. Note: based on recipe from Cleochatra - The lighter side of low carb.

Great idea!

This rocks!!! Even the hubby liked it. We ate it with nothing on top. But are going to make some later in the week and mix it up with some veggies and sauce...no cheese necessary (there is enough in the crust).
This sounds really interesting. will be excited to try this

Tried this and was ok, still not the same as a real crust but ok if you are really craving pizza.
