    My daughter (geegeeland) introduced me to this. Delicious and great for those of us watching carbs. I like to use it plan as bread, with no toppings. I toast leftover pieces until crisp and use as crackers. - 9/18/12

    I have a dairy sensitivity and can't eat cheese so omitted that and used egg white instead of a whole egg, plus loads of garlic!! It was incredible!!!! I made it for my friends last night and I seriously could have had twice the amount, everyone raved, even sans cheese. Used fresh instead of frozen. - 5/6/12

    It's 82 MG not % of cholesterol... which out of 300 per day is not bad at all for a meal. And of course low carbers know that dietary cholesterol is not a measure of lipid cholesterol :)

    I had this and thought it was completely amazing. I also used raw so I didn't have to worry about draining

    I agree with Geminisue..why use frozen when you can buy a whole head of fresh cauliflower? It will make twice as much, it's half the price, fresh, with no excess water. I use my food processor with the grate blade. Takes literally all of 2 minutes and voila! - 12/12/12

    I used the version from the Recipegirl.com site, which calls for 2+ cups of cauliflower (egg & cheese the same, but I used fat-free cheddar & a Mexican blend). My herbs were thyme & oregano. The crust baked to perfection & I broiled tomatoes & yellow peppers on top. YUM! - 4/28/12
