Sorry that's not a pizza however much they might want to believe it.

sorry, but yuk.

I like the sound of it- will try it next time I get a cauli. Might not be an authentic Italian pizza but then I am not a purist- happy to call it a pizza. Thanks for sharing it!

They look lovely uli - never heard of them before.

as long as it has the 3 colours of italy for the royal visit, it is a pizza.

Can you please explain how you "make" the base - do you chop the cauli into fine pieces!Thanks

rumbledoll, Feb 16, 3:38pm
I have made it by chopping cauli finely, fry off in knob of butter to soften into more soft paste like - add some cheese to bind with S&P.Depends on consistency - don't make too wet.

I have just made the mince pizza . its in the oven now - looking delish.

The site does say." Healthy ALTERNATIVE to pizza, didn't say it was a pizza.

This is a slightly different version:

Try out which one you like better. You can also turn them into "bread"sticks.

Lots more links in those two.

Now start digging your garden - so you can plant 120 caulis for the coming winter and spring :)

They do look nice, may be tempted myself.

Cauliflower pizza base and cauli breadsticks are a staple in this house now. Especially since I discovered that you don't need to cook the cauli before you make the dough.

Do you just rice it!

Even Nigella has a meatza recipe in her book Nigellissima - must be main stream now! ;-)

Here's a good base, with lots of comments and refinements following -

Yes. It doesn't seem to matter that it's raw, and it cuts out a whole step and saves time. Mix with the egg and cheese as usual and spread as thin as you can if you're making pizza. If I'm making breadsticks I don't spread it thin, I bake it in a dish so that it's about 3 cm high. Then I turn it out and slice into thin slices, spread them out, sprinkle with cheese, and bake again.

You think meat instead of wheat dough makes a heart attack!
Maybe read up on that theory!
