Pizza is one of those foods that can be really hard to replicate but with around 30 grams of carbs for ONE slice of pizzeria pizza I had to figure it out. I have tried all different low carb versions and they all were flops. Cauliflower crust sounds promising but the fact that you will never have a crispy crust is where you lose me. Same with a lot of pre-packaged crusts. Extra money and extra ingredients that I couldn't pronounce. I had almost given up on finding a low carb pizza that would rival actual pizza until one day when I was craving pizza soooo bad and I looked in my pantry, saw my Tumaros wraps and knew I had to give it a shot. That is when this recipe was born and now I have the perfect go-to, low carb pizza and it is truly amazing! I cannot stress enough how important it is for everyone to try this recipe. Especially if you are watching your carbs- especially if you love pizza as much as I do- this recipe is a game changer!
