The Lightest Unbread Sticks Ever

The original version of these bread sticks has 8 servings at 175 calories per serving (per breadstick).  That is a whopping 1400 calories if you eat all 8 servings.  My version has 393 calories for the whole dog gone recipe or 49 calores (per breadstick).  You know what I am gonna do?  I am gonna eat all 8 breadsticks by myself and not give my skinny husband Todd any.  Nom nom nom nom.  Oh and because I also think the orignal recipe is brilliant I am adding a link to it at the bottom of this blog.

Cauliflower Bread Sticks – The Lightest Version 

1 1/2  cup grated raw cauliflower (about 45 calories)
1 egg (72 calories)

1 egg white (16 calories)
1 cup fat free mozzarella cheese (180 calories)
20 slices(about 1 oz) chopped  turkey pepperoni (80 calories)
1/2 tsp fennel
1 tsp oregano
2 tsp parsley
1/2 tsp coarse kosher salt 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine all ingredients in a bowl.  Spray a 6x6 oven proof dish with cooking spray and press in cauliflower ingredients.

Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes, or until set.  Let cool slightly.

Remove the sticks from pan carefully and cut into bread stick like slices.

Place slices on a baking sheet and bake at 425 degrees F. until the tops brown (about 10 minutes). Let cool little before eating.

Serve with marinara sauce.
