When you just gotta have pizza, you can cut the carbs with:
Cauliflower Pizza Crust
Ingredients:
½ head cauliflower, coarsely chopped
½ C. shredded Italian or Mexican cheese blend
¼ C. chopped fresh parsley
1 egg
1 tsp. chopped garlic
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Place cauliflower pieces through the feeding tube of the food processor using the grating blade: Pulse until all the cauliflower is shredded.
2. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer cauliflower to a large bowl and refrigerate, stirring occasionally, until cooled, about 15 minutes.
3. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon mat.
4. Stir cheese blend, parsley, egg, garlic, salt & pepper into cauliflower until evenly incorporated. Pour mixture onto the prepared baking sheet; press and shape into a pizza crust.
5. Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
