Other Aisle Gourmet is a company that prides itself on "recreating America's favorite foods with vegetables," producing items like Cauliflower Sandwich Thins and Cauliflower Pizza Crust.
The Cauliflower Sandwich Thins are described as a gluten-free "bread substitute made with fresh cauliflower, parmesan cheese, clean label cottage cheese, egg whites and sunflower lecithin." As such, the low-carb bread alternative is free from flour, nuts, soy and any artificial ingredients—plus it provides one whole serving of vegetables in each piece.
While the cruciferous vegetable has been a supermarket staple for years, it is now coming into the spotlight as a low-carb, low-calorie alternative to rice that can also make a satisfying plant-based substitute for chicken wings or steak.
