The Skinny on Cauliflower Crust Pizza Plus a GIVEAWAY!
June 17th, 2011
So today is the very FIRST installment for The Skinny series! Today, I’m doing a review on Cauliflower Crust Pizza!
Crust Indgredients:
- 2 cups shredded cauliflower
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tsp parsley
- 2 tsp oregano
Pizza Ingredients:
- Pizza Sauce (preferably low-carb)
- Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- Your choice of toppings
Now before I get into the recipe directions, I have to tell you that I recruited Chad from Agostina’s Pizza in Camp Hill. Also known as The King of Pizza!
I figured, if I’m going to recruit help, it might as well be from the Pizza King himself! And he was kind enough to sacrifice a few hours from his day off to help me! And he was all ready to go!
Directions:
First, you want to preheat your over to 450 degrees.
Next you want to shred your cauliflower – we used a cheese grader.
Then, take all of your crust ingredients and mix them well in a blender.
Bake for about 20 – 25 minutes, or until the bottom is a golden brown. Looking good!
Add your pizza sauce.
Add your mozzarella cheese.
Add your toppings.
A little more mozzarella :)
And bake until the cheese is bubbly!
Doesn’t that look delicious! Now all you have to do is cut and serve!
So how did it turn out?
Chad and I agree that it tasted much better than we had anticipated. So we give it a 4 out of 5 stars!
And to be honest, I ate the leftovers the next day, straight out of the fridge and cold, and I think it tasted even better cold! But I also love cold pizza haha.
If you end up trying this recipe, please comment on this post as to how it turned out!
GIVEAWAY TIME!

My favorite pizza topping is black olives, white onions & slices of tomatoes. Will definitely try this cauliflower crust recipe this weekend! Thanks for posting it! : )
I love white pizza with broccoli!
I am so psyched seeing my recipe making the rounds! Here is the original for anyone interested. http://blog.yourlighterside.com/2009/05/low-carb-pizza-dough-cauliflower.html
I love the addition of cheddar to the crust. I usually go with mozzarella, but the cheddar would be a nice add.
Fondly,
Jamie

Call me a traditionalist, but my favorite topping is still pepperoni! :)
