Ultra-low Carb Pizza and Breadsticks You’d Never Guess Were Ultra-low Carb!
In my healthy pizza series, I posted on cheese pizza, doughy pizza and breadsticks, and now I will show you the ultra-low carb version! This is for all of you trying to watch your carb intake but would still like to enjoy something that tastes like real pizza. Try this one on unsuspecting friends and they will not even notice!
Ingredients:
- 1 head of cauliflower (no steaming required! yay! less work)
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup cheese
- Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper (and garlic if you like garlicky bread)
Pizza Sauce:
- 6 oz tomato paste (one small packet or can)
- 4-5 drops of stevia
- vinegar (1/2 cup – 1 cup or more)
- 1-2 tbsp of chopped garlic
- dash of cinnamon & salt
Mix all ingredients together. Keep adding vinegar until your desired thickness is reached.
Crust & Breadsticks Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees (we use toaster oven for convenience).
Grate cauliflower in food processor or using a grater.
Add eggs and cheese and seasonings, process again ( or mix)
Line a pizza pan with parchment paper or nonstick reusable baking mats and smash mix onto it (may be a bit watery and that is okay)
Bake for 30-40 min depending on your oven, until the top is brown.
Take out and flip, (sprinkle more cheese on the top if doing cheesy breadsticks) put back in oven until the other side is brown.
Breadsticks: Take out and slice into strips and ENJOY dipped in the pizza sauce or homemade ketchup.
Pizza: decorate it and put back into oven and broil it until cheese is melted!
Take out, cut, and serve!
*just like with the other versions, we always make a bunch when we do this recipe and freeze the crust! It freezes excellently and makes for easy frozen pizza!!!
