New Thing 22, New Thing Every Day: Let Leigh Teach me to Make Cauliflower Crust Pizza

We learned about cauliflower crust pizza sometime last year and we probably make it every several weeks. The only difference is the crust and that really is delicious, but totally lacking in carbs. Leigh always makes it, and tonight she showed me how and let me help a bit.

Here's the recipe:

Pureed Cauliflower
