I have always been pretty addicted to carbs, but I feel so much better when I limit them in my diet. My body responds better to eating a high protein, low carb diet. I have more energy, my head is clearer, I sleep better, I’m so much more productive, the list could go on. I just feel all-around great when I limit my carb intake and stick to more low carb foods.

Because I feel so much better, I don’t want to slip back into the old habits that make me feel not-so-good, but I sure do miss bread. When I saw a recipe for Cauliflower Squares on Allrecipes, I thought they looked like an interesting addition to my low carb diet. There are a whole host of recipes for Cauliflower Breadsticks on the web, but this one looked easy enough. I made some adjustments to the recipe because I can’t help myself, but I think it turned out almost as good as cheesy bread. All you need is a trusty food processor and a silicone baking mat or parchment paper along with fresh ingredients and you’re in business!

These low carb breadsticks taste fresh, garlicky, and cheesy just like an amazing garlic bread smothered in a layer of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. There’s a hint of cauliflower flavor, but it certainly doesn’t overwhelm. The texture is a bit softer than bread, but that didn’t bother me one bit, because all I could think about was the melty goodness of the garlic and cheese bursting with fresh basil just like my favorite cheesy bread, but it’s low carb!! I am so happy I can enjoy cheesy bread while eating a low carb diet, I don’t even care that it is ‘faux cheesy bread’.

My next adventure in cauliflower bread will be low carb cauliflower pizza crust! The topping choices are endless, so I’m having a hard time deciding where to start, but I’m excited to enjoy pizza while living a low carb lifestyle. What do you think? Where should I start?

Print Recipe Pin Recipe Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 15 minutes Total Time: 30 minutes Servings: 5 Servings Calories: 143 kcal Author: Life Tastes Good Ingredients 1 head cauliflower raw

1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese shredded

1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese shaved

1 large egg

1/2 tablespoon garlic minced

1/2 tablespoon fresh basil chopped

1/2 tablespoon fresh Italian flat-leaf parsley chopped

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

3/4 cup Mozzarella Cheese shredded Instructions Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat

Rice the cauliflower by coring it and breaking it into florets. Then place it in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until it is the texture of rice. (If your cauliflower seems excessively moist, squeeze the riced, raw cauliflower in a paper towel to help remove moisture.)

In a large bowl, mix the riced cauliflower, 1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 egg, 1/2 tablespoon fresh garlic, 1/2 tablespoon fresh basil, 1/2 tablespoon fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper until combined and holds together. Place the mixture onto the lined baking sheet and spread out into a rectangle about 9x7" and 1/4" thick.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and top with 3/4 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese and return to oven to continue baking until the cheese is melted and starting to brown. Cool about 10 minutes and cut into 'breadsticks'. Garnish with fresh herbs and Parmesan cheese. Serve with your favorite Red Sauce and enjoy! Notes The number of breadsticks per serving will vary based on how thick of thin you cut the breadsticks. To control serving size, cut the sheet of cooked breadsticks into fifths first. Then cut each fifth into breadsticks.However many breadsticks you cut from each fifth is the number per serving - based on the breadstick size you like.
