  • Great recipe, I substituted

    Great recipe, I substituted for Lidells Lactose free cheese and fresh egg whites and all worked just as well, even Hubby prefers this over regular pizza bases now!

  • Loved it!  I found I had to

    Loved it! 

    I found I had to squeeze all the water out by mashing the cauliflower in paper towel. I spread it on the tray very thin and it went crispy. 

    The second time I made it I added two whole eggs (rather than just whites) it was just as amazing.

  • Hi Andrea, thanks for the

    Hi Andrea, thanks for the feedback for this recipe. We're wondering if maybe your cauliflower was too wet. From our research the recipe's success is dependant on the water being completely squeezed out after steaming. Nobody wants a soggy pizza base!

  • How thin should this base be?

    Submitted by AndreaH on 10. September 2013 - 21:25.

    How thin should this base be? I used half of the mix and spread it onto baking paper on a pizza tray and it browned okay but was complete mush. Wondering if I had it too thick perhaps ? Tasted fine but disappointed with it as a pizza base. tmrc_emoticons.(

  • You can buy egg whites in a

    Submitted by fasteasyfood on 4. August 2013 - 17:03.

    You can buy egg whites in a carton in australia from woolworths (and Coles I think too) - most of the time they're in the refridgerated egg carton section although I did see them once in the cream area. The brand is called NATUREGG SIMPLY EGG WHITES, its in a 500g "milk carton" and they do 3 varieties including one which is egg whites only. They're awesome BC you can whip them into meringues. There's another brand in the frozen food fridge (in the frozen fruit area) and that's called GOLDEN EGGS EGG WHITES, blue soft pouch, 950ml size but these egg whites are pasteurised so you can't use them for making meringue. I use both now and substitute egg whites for whole eggs when I bake with no loss of flavour etc, just loss of calories and less cholesterol!

  • I don't think that's a silly

    Submitted by qwerky on 4. August 2013 - 16:13.

    I don't think that's a silly question at all! I think this recipe might have originated from the US where such a thing is available. It'd be fine to use fresh egg whites.

    Can't wait to try this!  This may be a silly question, but what are egg whites (from a carton)? Can you use fresh egg whites?
