Cauliflower "Low Carb" Pizza Crust


1 bag of frozen 16 oz cauliflower
1/4 cup chop cilantro or parsley
2 cups mozzarella/Monterrey jack cheese, shredded
1 egg,
1 tsp garlic powder

1. Steam the cauliflower until done.
2. Using a food mill or ricer, process the cauliflower.
3. In a large bowl mix processed cauliflower, cilantro/parsley, cheese, egg, and garlic powder.

You may cook these in several ways:
1. In a cast iron skillet, heat butter and/or coconut oil and "fry" one side of the cauliflower crust and using the broiler in your oven brown the other side, slightly. Then place your sauce, olive oil, cheese and toppings and bake for pizza.

2. Bake in the oven on parchment paper for 10-20 mins, until the bottom is a little brown and then flip the parchment paper over with the "cauliflower crust" and cook on the other side for 10-20 minutes. I will not lye...this isn't easy. However you can mush the cracked crust back together. Then place your sauce, olive oil, cheese and toppings and bake for pizza.

Note: the picture is of the parchement method. I have a small cast-iron, so I don't do this method that often.

I use the chicken sausages from Whole Foods on my pizzas for meat.
