Carbs?
Hi, Michellelc82. The carbs per serving are “negligible,” – i.e., less than 4 grams per serving.
I have a problem with the crust sticking to the pan, even with the olive oil spray. Would you recommend using parchment paper between the pan and crust?
Hi, Rickmc. Parchment is a great idea – or you can use a silicone baking sheet.
Is that 2 cups grated cauliflower or 2 cups cauliflower grated?
Thank you
Hi, jcorkie. It works out to be the same amount.
Can you use frozen (then thawed) riced cauliflower for this recipe?
Hi, Tracialmaraz. Yes, frozen cauliflower is fine for this recipe – just be sure to heat it before use.
How do you add a recipe to your menu?
Hi, Tlabois. If you use the personal version of the Menu Planner application (access it by clicking on the “My Food Choices” icon in the toolbar above your current menu), you will see some of our recipes in the “Recipes” subcategory of each major food group. For newer recipes that have not yet been added into the system, you can use them to substitute for the main ingredient in your meal. You can also match up the exchanges visible at the end of each recipe and when you click on “Exchange mode” in the toolbar above your menu. It doesn’t need to be a perfect match to work.
I’m new to this! Just joined and so far very happy with recipes! When you grate the cauliflower, is it cooked cauliflower or raw? Ive made similar but the cauliflower was cooked first and was a big mess!
Hi, Lynnie, and welcome! The cauliflower is raw when you grate it.
This cauliflower pizza crust looks so easy and very simple to calculate the meal. I must try this as I am a Celiac and have Candida as well. Thanks for this .
Hi, Karona. You definitely can do this with broccoli. You can also make it with zucchini, but you will need to add 1/4 cup (1 oz) almond flour. Pizza crusts can also be made from sweet potato, but that would be a very different recipe, based on much more flour.
Could I do this with Broccoli? or another vegetable
Hi, please4pls. We use an exchange system (see the values for this recipe above), so that it can fit into your daily menus. We are currently working on a traditional “Nutrition Facts” information system. Stay tuned…
