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!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
