Tip

Makes 2 pizzas

I'm on a strict low carb/low calorie challenge so this is a great way on not feeling like you're missing out!  The cottage cheese binds it well & keeps cals down too.  You could always add more spice to base to suit.

  • I love this healthy base!! I didn't precook cauli...

    I love this healthy base!! I didn't precook cauli or squeeze out water and it worked great.
    Instead, I chopped 300g of cauliflower for 6 sec on reverse speed 5, but then left in the bowl and added the egg and cottage cheese through the hole in lid, while on reverse speed soft til mixed thru.
    Gave another good mix with spatula before turning out onto baking paper lined tray and baked on 200 degrees for about 20 minutes, til it was slightly browned and firm to touch. It made one medium sized pizza.
    While it baked, I fried up ingredients that required a bit of cooking, eg onion, capsicum, mushroom, etc.
    Once baked I removed from oven and spread with tomato paste, fried veggies, shreeded ham and chicken and cheese. Then popped in back in oven til cheese melted and browned. Guilt free pizza!! 👍

    This was delicious, a bit soggy but I think I could have asked it longer or perhaps flipped it over and maybe wrung more water out of the cauli! Still yummy. I halved the recipe for 1 serve and used ricotta cheese instead of cottage! I will be making this again for sure!  tmrc_emoticons.)

    Submitted by Sam74 on 19. August 2014 - 22:01.

    I used a medium sized cauliflower around 700g & regular cottage cheese.  The trick is to really wring out all the excess moisture out of the cauliflower.  I was amazed by how much it holds, went through two clean tea towels!  Did you also bake for 20 minutes prior to adding the topping?  Otherwise it goes mushy.

    I tried this tonight and the results were not great.  How many grams of riced cauliflower is needed.  There is a big difference in size of the heads.  Also, did you use regular or dry cottage cheese?  I used regular but I think I will try dry next time.
