I’ve been reading a lot of nutrition labels.
Some foods have a lot of carbs—especially pizza. I love pizza (Wild Mike’s frozen pepperoni is the best!!!), but since carbs are being limited in my house, I needed to find a substitute. I didn’t want to give up pizza, just carbs.
Cauliflower crust pizza was an obvious choice, but I was hesitant. I once tried to substitute pasta with spaghetti squash, and that was a gross failure. I didn’t expect cauliflower crust to be any better.
To my great surprise, it was okay. Is it as good as my favorite Wild Mike’s pizza? No. But since it has a quarter of the carbs as regular pizza (no, it’s not carb-free, but it would probably be inedible if it was), I call it a winner.
The cauliflower crust frozen pizza I tried was by California Pizza Kitchen. I would compare it to a cracker crust. If you are looking for a low-carb pizza option, I’d give this a try. They have several topping options; I like pepperoni, mushroom, and sausage.
Do you have any favorite low-carb foods? Reading a bunch of nutrition labels has been an eye-opening experience. Carbs are everywhere.
