    Cauliflower Crust Pizza with Feta and Swiss Chard {Gluten-Free Monday}

    Published: Jan 29, 2021 by Heidi Fowler. This post may contain affiliate links 44 Comments

    Who's ready for some some yummy pizza with a zero carb crust? Cauliflower crust pizza is so yummy that you'll never miss the carbs.

    Gluten Free Cauliflower Crust Pizza with Feta and Swiss Chard--Low Carb! {OneCreativeMommy.com}

    Because I was on the South Beach diet (until I was completely done-in by a bag of candy corns) and trying to cook gluten-free, I decided it was definitely a good time to try out cauliflower crust pizza!

    This recipe was inspired by Recipe Girl and the Skinny GF Chef.

    • ½ LARGE head cauliflower (or 2+ cups shredded cauliflower--I used frozen, and it worked just fine)
    • 1 large egg
    • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
    • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
    • ¼ teaspoon minced fresh garlic
    • ½ teaspoon onion salt
    • 2 T Ricotta cheese

    Toppings:

    • Pizza or Spaghetti Sauce (Remember that if you are going for low carb, sugar in the sauce will add carbs.) (If you are cooking gluten-free, don't forget to check for gluten in the sauce!  From what I've found, Hunts original (not the one with meat) canned spaghetti sauce is GF.)
    • Cooked or fresh Swiss chard (Yep.  I said Swiss chard.  I discovered that it tastes just like spinach when put on pizza.)
    • Shredded Mozzarella
    • Feta

    Instructions:

    1. Using a cheese grater, shred the cauliflower into rice-size pieces.  (You'll need about 2 cups).  Microwave the cauliflower "rice" for 8 minutes (don't add any water), and allow it to cool.
    2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F, and lightly grease 9" to 12" round pizza pan.
    3. Mix the cauliflower rice with the remaining crust ingredients and pat the crust into the pan--using your fingers to flatten and spread it out.
    4. Spray the crust lightly with nonstick spray and bake it for 15 minutes (or until the cauliflower looks golden).
    5. Remove the crust from the oven and add your toppings.  Place the pizza under your broiler until the cheese melts and gets bubbly.
    6. You're done . . . now enjoy it!  So yummy!

One is a recipe for Spiced Butternut Squash Scones, free of gluten, eggs, nuts, sugar and with a dairy free option, and the other is an article on Celiacs disease, wheat allergies and Oral Allergy Syndrome and sprouted grain bread.

      Yum! I've been wanting to try a cauliflower crust for so long. We're not a gluten-free family, but we love veggies and love to switch it up and try new things.

      This was surprisingly delicious! I'm not a big fan of cauliflower so I was a little bit scared and skeptical but you really can't taste the cauliflower! Thank you for sharing this recipe with us!

      My family LOVED the pizza, but for some reason my crust was a bit soggy in the middle - it fell apart. What happened? I tried to cook the second one longer, but it just looked burnt.

      Love a pizza recipe that is at least a little healthy! I have never heard of cauliflower crust before, but it should be a good alternative. Look very tasty :-)
