Pizza, everybody loves it, but we don’t always love the carbs or calories. Well guess what? While you can use a traditional pizza crust to make this recipe, you don’t have to because there are healthier grain free, low carb options right in your grocery store!.I made this gorgeous California Chicken Club Salad Pizza! (Cauliflower Crust-Paleo-Keto)

The Crust!
There are several brands that make grain free pizza crusts. You can find them in the frozen section of almost any grocery store. Most are made with cauliflower, and honestly, they are good! Especially when topped
Make This Recipe Paleo or Keto:
In an effort to make everyone happy I will offer this recipe several ways:
Don’t Care? Use any crust you wish!
Paleo: use cauliflower crust of your choice and skip the mozzarella cheese
Keto: use whichever crust you prefer and cheese it up!
All variations can be dressed with my my dairy free ranch recipe or have Tessemae’s or Primal Kitchen’s Ranch Dressing delivered to your door.
Can I just say my daughter came over after we photographed this recipe, helped me eat it after, and has made this recipe at least 5 times in the last two weeks! It’s so good and super healthy!
The California Club Salad Pizza:
I love adding salad to my pizzas. I do it all the time, but it’s usually a really simple arugula, lemon juice and olive oil combo. This time I went all out with a fresh romaine salad that includes all your favorite club sandwich ingredients…tomatoes, bacon, avocado and chicken! To keep it simple I use rotisserie chicken, but you could also use leftover roasted chicken.
The Recipe: California Chicken Club Salad Pizza! (Paleo-Whole30-Keto)

Now these sounds like such a healthy and delicious idea for a pizza, I’m definitely going to have to try it
This is right up my alley! I have been using cauliflower in everything these days and it makes such a great sub when watching your carbs. Love tessamae’s dressing too.
Sadly this isn’t available where I am, but if it was, such a great go to to make home healthy pizza.
Oh darn!
How great to have it all prepared for you!!!
That really will make it so much easier to cut the carbs!
Yes, soooo much easier!
If only all salads looks and sounds as delicious as this one. I love this salad pizza, seriously looks out of the world. Delicious. Would happily swap this for anything
Thanks. We have been eating this salad a lot at our house!
