"bcp" - bruce's cauliflower pizza -

Recipe by
Bruce Hoffman

We started cutting carbs and now do cauliflower rice and zoodles - but wanted something else so I tried this Cauliflower Pizza! After a few tries I think I got it down. Most recipes call for balking the "crust" for 15 minutes well that didn't work for us. Found out that this "crust" doesn't burn easy - so kept it in for 30 minutes - checking it out from time to time until it gets "crunchy" brown. That did the trick. I add a bunch of toppings - but Margo is more of a New Jersey - New York pizza purist and sticks with pepperoni and more mozzarella cheese. Really good Friday Nite Meal.
