It just looked so delicious I had to get an up close shot of it with the toppings

And here is a picture of the crust, it looks and tastes just like regular crust, except its truly HEALTHY.

Hey guys! So I made pizza from scratch today and I was so excited I just had to share it with you. I used cheese sticks" to pizza, I did add more cheese and I added turkey pepperoni for an extra bit of Protein.< /p>

You literally cannot tell the difference between this and another thin crust and It's sooooooooo good. And extremely filling.

my changes:

-- Added cheese to make it 1 full cup of cheese (still mixed the same amount of cheese the recipe calls for in the crust), all the extra cheese went on top of the pizza.

-- Added 32 slices of hormel turkey pepperoni

Stats:

2 slices of pizza with 1/4 cup of marinara

176 calories

15 grams of protein

9.9 grams of fat

9.2 grams of carbs

PS Check out my lap-band pinterest board here

EDIT: of course your exact nutritional break down will depend on your toppings, cheese, and marinara so adjust accordingly. I used Clasico cabernet marinara, stater bros part skim finely shredded mozzarella, and hormel turkey pepperoni.

Oh it was! I might change it so it has 5 slices as opposed to 4 slices of pepperoni or something like that to get the Protein up to 20 grams a serving but I'm not sure yet.

This will definitely be made again and I have enough cauliflower left over for 3 more 8 slice pizzas.

What is riced cauliflower? I would like to try this, but I have no clue what this is? I would imagine cut up cauliflower, maybe with a cheese grater or food processor?

Cheryl2586 - it was amazing!

2012 - If you read further into the recipe, it explains what to do, basically you just take a cheesegrater to the raw cauliflower. Super simple, you just need a quarter of a large head of cauliflower.

I'm not a huge veggie person myself, which is a good reason I like this recipe because I get a serving of veggies without the taste. I couldn't eat cauliflower by itself. not my thing.

I provide the recipes you guys can make them :oP I really enjoy cooking but not that much!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
