Keto Aubergine & Feta PizzasteemCreated with Sketch.

in #food6 years ago (edited)

Who says no to Pizza? Well if you're serious about following the Keto diet/ lifestyle as my hubby is, you will certainly say so!
But, there's an alternative base to the conventional bread dough base and that is using a cauliflower rice base which I must add is absolutely delicious and no bloating afterwards as Pizza sometimes tend to do!

Keto Aubergine Pizza
To make the base, I made my own Cauliflower rice in the food processor. So how do we bind this to make a pizza base?
Unfortunately no vegan option here - eggs and cheese are crucial.

Cauli Pizza Base

  • 1 Cauliflower broken into florets & processed
  • 2 Eggs beaten
  • 1/2 cup Mozarella Cheese grated
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan grated

Mix together, season to taste & press into pan and bake for 20 min at 190C

I've been wanting to join, will definitely turn up at your #fff soon:) Thank you for your support!

I'm in the mood for pizza now @lizelle! This looks wonderful. I haven't tried cauliflower crust but definitely need to, you 're right about pizza crusts making you feel yuck. Good idea. I hope this was a win for the hubby too! Is he enjoying the Keto diet? So many are trying it these days. Yummy post :)

Thank you so much my friend, sure you will enjoy it. One has to steam or microwave the cauli rice, just make sure you squeeze all the liquid out, mine was quite dry as I microwaved it.
Hubby's glucose levels are excellent now plus he's had to drastically reduce his insulin, and losing weight, trying to get his six pack back;);) Thank you for your lovely comments!

Ive done this many times :D, pretty delicious. Yours looks amazing! Id suggest looking into "fat head dough " recipe as well.

Ill send @foodfightfriday over here as well. Yum yum

Thank you @weirdheadaches, I will definitely look at that! Fat head dough sounds so weird:)

Your wish is my command....commence Splattin’

Thank you for the splatz and the fathead dough, going to make that next time!

I know who'd like this - @walkerland.

YUUUUUM. My hubby hates eggplant, but he's away for 2 weeks, so I'm going to eat ALL THE EGGPLANT.

Thank you @riverflows, enjoy all the eggplant while you can! It's weird, people either love it or hate it.

Looks yum lizelle. Too bad it has cheese. My body and mind aren't too keen on that. Though homemade pizzas are the best.

@lizelle, that pizza looks yummy. Pizza is one of the foods I miss most. I will have to try the cauliflower crust and buy some vegan mozzarella cheese. I can also add my vegan cheese sauce. Ok, it is on.

Thank you so much, you should try fat head dough, that's my next attempt :)
