Low Carb Cauliflower "Breadsticks"

If you like cauliflower crust pizza, then you'll love these breadsticks. Granted, they're not for everyone. My husband turned his nose right up at them. But give them a try hot with a nice marinara sauce or cold right from the fridge dipped in caesar dressing. Don't knock it 'til you try it!

Ingredients:

1 small head of cauliflower (2 cups lightly packed once riced) 

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella

1/2 cup grated parmesan

1 egg

2 tsps minced garlic

2 tsps fresh chopped basil

1 tsp dry parsley

1 tsp salt

1/4-1/2 tsp pepper

3/4 cup shredded mozzarella

Take the cauliflower florets and pulse them in a food processor to rice them until you have 2 cups worth of riced cauliflower. If you find the cauliflower too moist just roll up and squeeze in a paper towel or dish towel. 

In a large bowl mix everything together except 3/4 cup mozzarella. Stir until it starts to holds together.

Then dump out onto a parchment lined baking sheet.

Firmly press out into an 11 X 9" rectangle 1/4-1/2" thick.

Bake at 425°F for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven, top with the remaining mozzarella, then back in the oven to melt the cheese. Broil if you like, but keep an eye on it. 

Cool 10 minutes then cut into sticks.

Garnish with herbs and serve with your favourite sauce.

Makes 22 sticks.
