I normally don't post more than one post per day, but I didn't want to group my ideas together but still wanted to share each of them. Yesterday I stumbled upon a Cauliflower Pizza Crust on Examiner.com, doesn't sound that great, right? But OH MY GOSH was it better than great! Luckily Steven is pretty daring when it comes to new foods & recipes and this was not exception. This was the recipe I made and it serves apx 2:
Crust:
1 cup mashed, unpacked cauliflower
1 cup Italian or Mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 egg
Italian season & Garlic Powder
Mix, then thin out on a cookie or pizza sheet. Remember the cheese will melt and your crust will thin and spread a tad bit more than before cooking. Cook at 450* for 10-15 minutes, until it starts to become golden brown.
Alfredo Chicken Pizza:
1/2 lb diced and cooked chicken (any meat to top pizza will need to be cooked before topping)
Alfredo sauce (we used a powder packet mix, used low fat buttermilk instead of milk and added a little flour to help thinken sauce)
Red Onions
Fresh diced tomatoes
Real bacon bits
Fresh diced mushrooms
Shredded Italian or Mozzarella cheese ( if you are calorie or Point counting remember there is cheese in the crust already)
It was amazing! The husband was incredibly surprised and said the crust tasted like a more seasoned bread & the pizza was restaurant style. I was very proud of my self for finding & trying the recipe & now we can have pizza all the time. It is now a comfort food without the guilt.
I'd love to hear if you tried it and how you liked it.
Enjoy!
