Why I Make This Almost Every Other Week 💛
As a private chef and full-time mom juggling a million things, I’m always looking for meals that are nourishing, satisfying, and easy to customize—and this cauliflower crust pizza checks all the boxes! I love a good pizza night (who doesn’t?), but I also try to keep things balanced. So instead of the usual dough, I started making this cauliflower crust version and… let’s just say, we never looked back.
It’s honestly one of my most repeat-worthy recipes. I make it at least every other week, sometimes more if we’re in a comfort food mood. The crust gets nice and golden, the edges crisp up beautifully, and it holds all the toppings like a champ. Even picky eaters (and cauliflower skeptics!) usually don’t believe it’s made from veggies. It’s also a great way to sneak in extra fiber and keep things lower in carbs without sacrificing flavor.
One of my favorite tips? Make a double batch of the crust mixture and freeze one round (before baking). It saves so much time and gives you a homemade pizza night ready in minutes. Plus, the toppings are totally up to you—sometimes I keep it vegetarian, other times I add grilled chicken, pesto, or olives for a Mediterranean twist. It’s fun, flexible, and gives me a chance to get creative in the kitchen without overcomplicating things.
So, whether you’re looking for a guilt-free pizza night, a new way to eat more veggies, or just something totally satisfying and flavorful, this is the recipe to try. Trust me, once you make it, it might become a regular in your kitchen too.
