Keto pepperoni pizza

[tpack]

Me and my wife have been on the Keto diet for 9 days now. This pizza and the crust were really good and good for you. There was only 12-13 carbs for the whole pizza. The crust is a cauliflower pizza crust. It was really good and did not even taste like cauliflower.

Yep. We've been doing keto for over a year now. We make keto pizza fairly often. Loaded it up with bacon, canadian bacon, axis burger, olives, parmesan garlic olive oil (instead of tomato sauce), etc. the other day. If you mix in a little coconut flower it can make it a little crispier. Also, it helps to bake the crust pretty thoroughly first, before putting on all the toppings. We put olive oil and salt on it initially, then bake until it's about done. If you take it off the baking sheet the last couple of minutes and just bake it on the rack, it gets nice and crisp.

There's a couple of local pizza shops that have cauliflower crust as an option as well.

Did you make the crust yourself? Can you post the recipe if so?

We've made crust and used bought crust. Tons of recipes online. I don't have any saved.

I made it myself after watching a few videos. This video is pretty close to how I made it. I used monterey jack cheese because that is what I had and it was good.

2 cups- Grated Cauliflower
1 cup-- Grated Cheese----your choice
1 egg

Cooked @ 400° for 15 minutes. You want the crust to have some good color on it for it to be done. I am an expert since this was my first time. LOL

I made 2 crust
1-I cooked the cauliflower in a skillet on medium heat for about 10 minutes to remove the moisture.

2-The second one I put in the microwave for 8-10 minutes to remove some of the moisture.
Be sure to let crust cool off and stir so more moisture will be removed. You are actually wanting a cauliflower flour.

I could not tell the difference in either crust. I did add salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic to the dough before cooking.
I used 2 pieces of parchment paper and a rolling pin to roll out the dough.

It was ok. Texture was great. I did an Alfredo, mushrooms, chicken, and black olives. I think the flavor of the cauliflower crust would be better with a marinara sauce.

Make em yourself.
At least we do.
I live with the Paul Prudhomme of Keto though, and do very little of the work, other than shelling out money for various food processors/appliances.

Try a grilled cauliflower steak sometime.
It ain't meat, but it will surprise you.

Going to have to give this a try.

I used a marinara sauce on ours. You just need to check the carbs for the sauce you use. You would be surprised how many carbs things have that you though they might not have.

My wife does the grocery shopping. She goes to United and HEB. I imagine they all have them.

Wheat is bird seed.

Meat, cheese, eggs, and vegetables is food.

[Uncle Saggy]

That really looks good. We aren’t keno but will definitely be making this crust

Yeah that is why I normally stay with the homemade alfredo. It is very very low in carbs.
