Yay or Nay for Cauliflower Pizza Crust!
Every once in awhile I want a slice of pizza!
I love the experience of eating pizza; the smell of the tomato sauce, how pizza looks, folding the slice and taking that first bite... I Think it's the hand-to-mouth-thing, using your hands instead of utensil like a caveman. I'm not all about the cheese anymore.
That brings me to Cauliflower Pizza. I always make it myself, taking a whole cauliflower, breaking it up, pulsing it in the food processor, microwaving it, ringing it out and adding the toppings. It takes a little bit of time, but all good things do.
But now, you can buy pre made cauliflower crust, made with the same ingredient I use! This really excited me when I saw it at the grocery store. I tried a few and the one I recommend is by #Cali’flour Foods. It's vegan but they're all amazing. Here's the lowdown on the difference between Cauliflower Pizza Crust and Regular Pizza Crust.

Now you're probably saying Cauliflower Pizza has a total fat, which yes it does but it's good fat unlike saturated fat (similar to an avocado). Cali ‘flour foods, Cauliflower Pizza is made with the same ingredients, that I use in my kitchen when I make cauliflower pizza, it’s naturally gluten free and wheat free.
When eating Regular Pizza it stays with you after you eat it for a long time then sticks to places you don't want it to (A.K.A your tummy). So my advice, try it, you may like it but I say you'll love it!
