This recipe uses cauliflower as a low-carb alternative to traditional pizza crust. The grocery list includes: 1 medium cauliflower, mozzarella, Parmesan, dried herbs, an egg, tomato sauce, cherry tomatoes, and fresh basil. The cauliflower (GI=15) and tomatoes (GI=15) are low on the glycemic index, making this a great meal for managing PCOS.
