No Way... I can Eat Pizza!

This is a great low cab alternative to pizza. Here I make a meat lovers pizza, but feel free to use whatever toppings you like. This recipe is 15-20 net carbs for the whole pizza depending on the pizza sauce.

Ingredients:
For the crust:
2 cups processed raw cauliflower (to the size of couscous)
2 cups part-skim shredded mozzarella
2 large eggs

1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon oregano
1 clove garlic

For the Toppings
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Pepperonis
Canadian Bacon
Sausage


Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Combine crust ingredients in a bowl. Press into a circle on a greased 12″ pizza pan by sprinkling the crust mixture around the pan and then gently pressing the mounds together. Make sure the crust is pretty then and lightly pat with a paper towel to soak up excess moister.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are a golden-brown color. Allow to cool for five minutes. Gently slide a spatula around the edges to loosen from the pan slightly.
Top crust with sauce, cheese, and other toppings
Place under a broiler on high for 3-5 minutes until toppings have heated and the crust is crispy.
Allow to cool for 10 minutes for the crust to solidify. Cut and serve.
