Low carb cauliflower pizza crust with a twist

Alright, guys!!!! I can officially say that I am done with college. Last week was my last final ever and now I am free!! It’s been a hell of a ride this past couple of years but I can proudly say that I accomplished this huge milestone and now I am ready to take this blogging thing to the next level.Today I am sharing with you this delicious cauliflower pizza crust because I figured many of us are still trying to maintain this summer body that we all worked so hard for. It obviously is not the real thing but it gets super close with a fraction of the calories. I first started making this recipe without the almond flour but eventually, after some experimenting, I found out that it makes for a crispier pizza crust that holds together a lot better.  So the twist here is to add that little bit of almond flour to help your crust hold together.The coolest thing about this cauliflower pizza crust recipe is that after making the crust you can freeze them and reuse them whenever you feel like it. see that… I am helping you guys save time, money, and a couple of inches off your waist 🙂
