Eggplant Crust
Unlike cauliflower pizza crust, eggplant crust requires very little hands-on prep and no additional ingredients.

The rounds make great mini pizzas, or you can arrange them all in a circle to create one traditional large pizza.
Using eggplant as the substitute for regular dough in your next pizza will add more fiber and vitamins to your plate while cutting out hundreds of calories at the same time.
