What if I told you leftover pizza could be as good as fresh pizza from a restaurant? Using this method of reheating, it can be. And it’s easy as (pizza) pie. So go ahead and take your leftovers home. And whatever you do – don’t go near your microwave!
A cast iron skillet is the preferred tool for this method. If you dont have a skillet, I would recommend first heating the pizza in a frying pan with a bit of oil. Then transfer the pizza slices on to a piece of tin foil and place in the broiler.
Cauliflower crust and cauliflower crust pizzas can be reheated in the microwave, if necessary, but for maximum crispiness reheat in the oven, toaster oven, or air fryer, at high heat.

How can you freeze cauliflower?
If you want frozen cauliflower, I recommend purchasing already frozen cauliflower. This is a cheaper and easier option for someone that is busy. If you have cauliflower you want to freeze, you first want to cut it into smaller piece, then steam it until it is tender. It is important that you don’t steam it too long because you don’t want it mushy. Once it is tender you can let it cool or put it in an ice bath to cool quicker. After the cauliflower is near room temperature you can put it in a freezer safe ziploc bag and press out as much of the air as you can. The cauliflower should last in the freezer for at least a few months.
