Ingredients
Bread Stick Ingredients

Did you squeeze excesss moisture out of the cauliflower before mixing with the other ingredients?
Dave, Yes, you should definitely squeeze out any excess moisture. Thanks for the question!
Could this be frozen and reheated for a meal at a later date?
Amy, Yes this can be frozen and reheated.
Squeezings excess water out before cooking should be part of the directions.
They sell riced cauliflower in Costco & Trader Joe super Mkt they also sell a gluten free pizza crust All made & will try to use that as a base for the garlicky cheesy bread stick recipe! Thank you !
FYI, forgetting about your cauliflower and letting it get a bit too soft isn’t a good idea! I ended up with a puree instead of a rice, and the end result really wasn’t that great. Next time I try this, will not be multitasking!
Thanks for the tip, Allie!
