- Around our house today, y'all, it's lunchtime
0:04
and I'm so fortunate.
0:07
My Aunt Peggy is not high maintenance
0:09
when it comes to eating and she does love a pizza.
0:13
So I'm gonna share with y'all a recipe
0:18
for a cauliflower crust pizza.
0:21
It's much healthier than the floured kind.
0:27
this is like a half a head of cauliflower that's been grated
0:31
on the fine part of the grater
0:35
but it's actually the biggest part.
0:38
I don't wanna confuse anybody.
0:40
So let me see where this is.
0:45
Oh, I can't remember, can't remember.
0:47
Well, I, I knew I put it in here.
0:54
You'd grate it on this side.
0:57
It would take you days if you used anything smaller.
1:00
So about a half a head of cauliflower
1:04
and you might can even buy grated cauliflower, can ya?
1:08
- [Theresa] You probably can nowadays.
1:09
- That would be easy.
1:11
But I'm gonna put this in the microwave
1:12
and cook it for about seven to eight minutes
1:16
and then we're gonna have to let it cool completely.
1:20
But I can have lunch ready for Aunt Peggy
1:22
in 15 or 20 minutes, can't I?
1:25
I'm trying to beat the clock, y'all.
1:27
This is Aunt Peggy's lunch and oh gosh.
1:31
All right, see what happens when I start getting in a hurry.
1:35
But I wanna get this done before she comes in
1:44
and I can pretend that we are a little closer
1:48
All right, that's one beaten egg
1:51
into that half a head of cauliflower.
1:56
We've got mozzarella cheese, we've got Parmesan cheese
2:04
and we're gonna do just a little light touch
2:10
Here we go, that's all we need.
2:19
To me, cauliflower is the best substitute
2:22
if you're dying for a potato.
2:26
Cauliflower will fit the bill.
2:32
I'll cook it and put some butter on it
2:34
and top it with a little sour cream.
2:36
Close my eyes and I can almost pretend
2:39
like I'm eating that baked potato.
2:44
All right, so here we go.
2:51
And remember, you wanna let that cauliflower cool.
2:54
Now, I've lightly sprayed our pan
2:59
and this is supposed to fit a 10 inch
3:00
and I don't know if this is a 10 or a 12 inch.
3:05
I don't remember what I've even thought, y'all,
3:09
so we're just gonna press this out.
3:14
It's a lot easier than rolling out pizza dough, isn't it?
3:19
Even the pizza dough that you buy
3:23
from the grocery store that's already done up.
3:25
That is the hardest stuff to roll out.
3:31
I mean, you think you're never gonna get it rolled out.
3:38
All right, you know what, Eddie?
3:40
I'm gonna have to satisfy my own self.
3:43
I'm gonna have to get the measuring tape and see.
3:52
I almost think this is a 10 inch.
3:56
If you were betting, what would you think?
4:00
Give it your best shot, Eddie.
4:04
- [Eddie] What are you talking about, the whole pan?
4:07
- [Paula] Yeah, pan, the size of the pan.
4:10
- [Eddie] Yeah, no, I think-
4:10
- [Paula] You think it's a 10 or a 12?
4:12
- [Eddie] Probably 12.
4:13
- [Paula] I think so too.
4:23
Now, do we measure it from outside to outside or inside to?
4:27
- [Eddie] I would say it's the, just-
4:29
- [Paula] It's a 12. - [Eddie] It is 12?
4:31
- [Paula] It's a 12. - [Eddie] That's all right.
4:33
- Oh yeah, I'm just not gonna
4:35
push it all the way to the edge.
4:47
All right, now we're gonna put this in a 425 degree oven
4:50
and we're gonna bake it for about 10 or 15 minutes
4:53
until it's golden brown
4:55
and then we're gonna have pizza for Aunt Peggy.
4:59
Look how good that looks, y'all.
5:02
And it smells delicious.
5:04
And it smells just like cauliflower.
5:11
Now, this is not gonna take but a minute to finish this up.
5:17
My recipe calls for tomato sauce
5:19
but Rao's started making a pizza sauce
5:27
and so that's what I'm using these days
5:31
'cause it's just that good.
5:34
Now, I'm making like a Margherita pizza
5:38
but you can put anything you want to on this.
5:45
Michael and I, we're meat eaters.
5:48
We like, we like ground beef
5:52
and bacon and all that good stuff
5:56
but we'd be kinda defeating the purpose, wouldn't we?
6:02
All right, so we got our cherry tomatoes
6:04
that we've just cut in half.
6:11
Put as many or as few as you want.
6:17
I think that's a plenty.
6:21
And some sliced garlic.
6:24
I think I'm gonna give it just a little rough chop
6:32
just to break it up a little bit.
6:41
I really do think y'all are gonna like this
6:44
and when you find out how easy this is,
6:50
you're gonna love it even more.
6:53
And when you figure out how low calorie it is,
6:59
you're gonna be in real love.
7:05
All right, now we're gonna put the basil
7:10
and again, as much or as little as you want.
7:16
Mm, I love the basil on it.
7:18
How about you, Eddie? - [Eddie] Yes.
7:21
- [Paula] Yes, well, tell me when you think I have enough.
7:28
- [Eddie] Oh, I think you could add more.
7:30
- [Paula] Okay, I could have more?
7:31
- [Eddie] Yeah. - [Paula] Okay.
7:35
Well, just yell when you.
7:38
- [Eddie] 'Cause I think it's gonna shrink up a little bit.
7:45
Okay, now how about a few shakes of red pepper?
7:54
To me, you get one of these little seeds and it's hot.
7:58
All right, back in the oven it goes.
8:02
Oh, I hadn't put our cheese on it yet.
8:05
We can't have a pizza without cheese, can we?
8:15
Now, in actuality, in real time,
8:20
what did it take to make this, 10 or 15 minutes?
8:23
The longest thing is letting it cool,
8:26
letting your cauliflower cool.
8:33
It's almost lunchtime and Aunt Peggy's not downstairs yet.
8:37
All right, Aunt Peggy got down here before
8:41
actually got out of the oven.
8:47
She said, "did you make that?"
8:53
Sure did, you wouldn't believe how easy it was.
8:58
Sure did make it and it sure is hot.
9:00
- [Michael] Hello hello.
9:01
- [Peggy] Hello hello. - [Paula] Hello hello.
9:06
- [Peggy] Barefooted.
9:09
- [Paula] He's barefooted? - [Peggy] Yes.
9:25
- [Paula] Ooh, I love that crust.
9:37
Okey-dokey, great, great.
9:42
Got you some pizza, homemade pizza.
9:46
- I can't wait for you to taste it.
9:48
What do you want to drink with your lunch?
9:57
- But you can't drink that.
10:00
- [Peggy] It smells so good. - I know.
10:03
I can't wait to tell you what it actually is.
10:07
- [Michael] Uh oh, she's tricking ya.
10:08
- [Paula] No, it's no trick. - [Michael] Uh oh.
10:11
- [Paula] Just treats.
10:32
- [Eddie] Pretty good? - Mhm.
10:34
You make it? - [Eddie] I did.
10:35
- [Paula] You just asked me if I made it.
10:42
- Well, it's a cauliflower crust
10:47
for people that really are wanting to watch their carbs.
10:51
- That is so not hurtful for you.
10:55
And course you can put anything on it
10:57
but I did a Margherita which is just tomatoes,
11:00
mozzarella and basil.
11:05
- [Michael] What's your niece's name?
11:07
What's your niece's name?
11:08
- [Peggy] Paula Deen.
11:11
- Paula Deen, she knew my name.
11:21
Delicious, you don't know what you're missing, Michael.
11:27
- This was no trick, just treat.
11:33
- [Michael] I tried to give you a hint.
11:36
- Love and Best Dishes, y'all.
11:42
