I’m sad to say that the “out of sight, out of mind,” mentality has caused me to overlook some of the veggies I purchased at the grocery store last week. When I opened the crisper drawer and spotted cauliflower on the verge of death this evening, I knew it was time to use it or lose it.
Though I knew I needed to use the cauliflower, I wanted comfort food for dinner…. Something hot, satisfying and delicious.
Enter, cauliflower pizza crust. 🙂
Pre-Cooked Crust
Ryan and I both love this recipe. The first time we made it we didn’t have much faith, but it turned out oh-so-cheesy and oh-so-tasty.
The two main ingredients in the crust are cauliflower and cheese. The cauliflower really takes on the cheese flavor, so you end up with quite the cheesetastic crust.
Cauliflower Crust
Ready for Toppings
Ryan and I topped our respective halves with lots of veggies and goat cheese. Ryan also added MorningStar Farms Grillers Crumbles to his half.
Pizza, Pizza
I think I overdid it on the amount of cauliflower I used in the recipe this time (I didn’t measure it exactly), so my pizza slices didn’t hold up like they previously have.
Luckily it still tasted great!
My Plate
Cheese + Cauliflower = Good Crust
Taxes
I still have to do my taxes. 🙁 Boo.
Luckily, my financial savvy fiance has agreed to help me and I’m off to start filin’.
Are your taxes done?

Andrew takes care of our taxes and he got them done just last week for us.
I can’t wait to try this crust! Love the idea and I always have cauliflower, and many times it goes bad and I throw it away.
Haha I needed money so badly, I did my taxes the day my form came in the mail! What a creative pizza crust recipe!
That crust looks so good!! I have got to try that!!!

I’m delaying paying the gov’t what I owe them until the very last second!!!
I made your cake mix cookies and posted pics on my blog today, check it out!
hooooray! don’t you love how EASY they are to make?
I have wanted to try that cauliflower pizza crust again – I tried once and it was iffy. My crisper drawer is down low, too – I always forget about it!
That is an AMAZING pizza crust recipe. I’ve never seen/heard of anything like it!
I still haven’t tried this crust!
Yes, our taxes are done…refund is back…and sadly, even though we had a child last year, we still didn’t get much back! Boo.
i actually OWE money. bummerrrr.
that looks great!!! can’t believe there’s no wheat/flour! and who doesn’t love cheese 😉
i did my taxes like 2months ago cause my dad has OCD and helped me set up turbo tax etc. i loved getting a nice tax return check in the mail 🙂 spent most of it at whole foods haha
Oh my goodness! I need to try that recipe – it looks so creative and delicious!!
First-time commenter – I just found your blog through Caitlin’s (HTP) and I added you to my Google Reader almost immediately! 🙂
thanks megan! 🙂
OMG! I made cauliflower crust too, except I made it vegan and it wasn’t very crusty. Do you think it’s the cheese that holds it together b/c I only used a 1/4 cup of vegan cheese? Love your blogs, by the way 🙂
yeah i definitely think the cheese is really important. i think i added too much cauliflower to the pizza last night & i believe that’s why it didn’t stay together like it normally does.
ahhh! got to try that. cauliflower and cheese, best combo hands down!
I am about to make cauliflower crust pizza!! Should have made it tonight, it looks soooo good!!!
My crisper drawer is at the bottom too, and I forget things all the time too. I’ve never heard of a cauliflower crust, but it looks fantastic!
Oooh I remember reading about this recipe the first time you made it. Thanks for bringing it back. I definitely want to try this!
I’m a tax accountant and I JUST did my taxes last week. Haha.
haha that makes me feel better!
i MUST try this trust girl!! it sonds AMAZING!
You know, I actually stumbled upon your blog yesterday because of this recipe. I tried it with my bf, but it’s a bit soggy, and then re-tried today to see if I could get it right. I didn’t think it possible to have hit my pizza max! Anyway, first of all, love your site! And I will be following:) Second, any ideas on a crispier crust, or what I may have done wrong.
i think it’s all about the cheese! i’d try adding a bit more cheese if it didn’t stay together. i think that was my problem last night!
Such a creative recipe, I’ll have to try it sometime!
That looks amazing, will have to try it.
Luckily we got our taxes done quite a while ago, I hope it’s not too much of a pain.
hahaha i love the imagery of “cauliflower on the verge of DEATH!” your blog perks me right back up into a better mood because you’re so gosh darn adorable! “D
oh my gosh! you can make a pizza crust from cauliflower? this is news to me! thanks for the link to the recipe!
i did my taxes friday. i owe. but the fiance is getting $ back, so it all works out! plus we bought a house and got that credit!

What a great idea! I’ll try that recipe soon too. Thanks!!
Good luck with your taxes, did not have to do mine this year (my work did it for me) but will have to do them next year as I am now officially self-employed. Very confusing indeed!
hi!! just found your blog and i loveeee it! your recipes look awesome and u seem like such a great role model! can’t wait to keep reading!
I’ve read about this pizza crust several times, but have wondered how good it actually is. I have it printed in my ‘to make’ pile. Your post may have convinced me to give it a try!
Oh my goodness, Jules, I forgot about how delicious your cauliflower pizza crust looks!! I must try this recipe sometime…is it easy to make?!?
yes, it definitely is – especially if you have a food processor to use to “rice” the cauliflower.
mmm what an interesting idea for a pizza crust but it sure does look amazing!
ahh so glad i get my taxes done for me by an accountant.. woosh
