Low Carb Alfredo Pizza
This was so good, everyone should try it!
The Crust
2 cups shredded cauliflower
1/4 cup almond meal
1/3 cup egg beaters
1 cup shredded cheese ( I used mozzarella)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 Italian blend seasoning
Cook shredded cauliflower in microwave for 9 min, let cool completely before adding the rest of the ingredients. Add cauliflower and the rest of the ingredients mix well. It can rest in the fridge while you chop the toppings. Spray a pizza pan with non stick cooking spray. Spread crust thinly but evenly in a circle to form your crust. Bake in a pre heat oven at 350 degrees for about 20 min or until golden brown.
Topping
1/2 cup alfredo sauce ( from a jar is fine, look for lowest carb count)
1 cup low fat 5 Italian cheese blend (you can use a little more or less if needed)
1 Italian turkey sausage ( cooked and crumbled)
sliced mushrooms
sliced olives
diced onions
diced green bell pepper
diced tomato
Spread alfredo sauce on pizza crust, top with cheese and the rest of the topping's. Cook under broiler just till cheese is melted. Let cool 5 minutes. Slice and serve.
