Easy Cheesy Cauliflower Crust Stromboli

Pizza is a popular dinner request in
my house and I am always experimenting with new twists on the traditional pizza
pie. We jumped on the low carb bandwagon when I was pregnant and had high blood
sugar earlier this year, and I became slightly obsessed a fan of using
cauliflower in place of bread and potatoes. I made Cauliflower Chowder and
Cauliflower Breadsticks and even Cauliflower Pizza! This recipe for Easy Cheesy Cauliflower Crust Stromboli
uses the same ingredients as my Cauliflower Pizza Crust but I simply roll out
the dough into a rectangle, fill with toppings and lots of cheese, and fold
over to make an extra cheesy stromboli!
Slice and serve with marinara sauce for dipping and I guarantee you will think
twice about eating the same ol’ traditional pizza next time!   

Ingredients:

Makes 2 large strombolis
  • 1
    head of cauliflower, chopped (about 5-6 cups)
  • 4
    eggs, beaten
  • 4 cups
    shredded Cheddar or Italian blend cheese
  • 12
    oz jar Marinara or Pizza sauce
  • 1
    tbsp oregano
  • 4
    cloves garlic, pressed
  • salt
    and pepper, to taste
  • Pizza
    toppings of your choice, we used sliced olives, pineapple, and pepperoni

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets.
  2. Add chopped cauliflower to a steamer and steam until softened and fork tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  3. Add cauliflower to a food processor and pulse until the texture of rice.
  4. Place cauliflower in a hand towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out any excess liquid.
  5. Add cauliflower to a bowl. Then add in eggs, 2 cups of shredded cheese, oregano, garlic and salt and pepper. Stir until combined.
  6. Pour half onto a lined baking sheet and shape into a rectangular shape. Repeat with remaining cauliflower mix on other lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake the crusts for about 20-25 minutes or until golden.
  8. Remove from oven and top each with ½ cup or so of marinara sauce (spreading to cover) and toppings of your choice sprinkled in the center.
  9. Then add ½ cup shredded cheese on top of each. Leave a barrier around the sides so you can fold over and seal the stromboli.
  10. Very gently, using a spatula, fold over the crust on both sides (similar to a burrito but without folding the ends). Don’t worry if it’s messy- you are going to cover it with more cheese!
  11. Top with an additional ½ cup cheese on each. I like to add a few pepperonis on top too!
  12. Bake in the oven for another 5-10 minutes until cheese is melted and stromboli is warmed throughout.
  13. Slice and serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping (optional).

🍜 We had so much fun celebrating Lunar New Year last weekend with dinner at @pho_85_noodle_house_llc in Bentonville, AR! The Banh Mi sandwich and Beef and Seafood Pho soups were filled with fresh ingredients and flavor packed. As you can see their portions were huge so it's a great place to share! We also tried an appetizer sampler, Thai Tea, Coconut Boba Smoothie (my girls' favorite) and macarons for dessert. Everything was made to order and delicious. The staff was kind and helpful. If you live near by, check them out and #eatlocall ! ❤️ @visitbentonville #Bentonville  #pho85noodlehouse #arkansasfoodie #whatsfordinner #arkansasblogger #supportlocal #bentonvillearkansas #lunarnewyear #chinesenewyear
