Cauliflower Crusted Pizza! Delicious Flavor at a Fraction of the Calories!

Cauliflower crusted pizza I have to say, is mighty tasty!! the consistency of the crust is one you have to eat with a fork, however, the flavor was incredible! below is the basic recipe. Be creative and add your own toppings to make your signature pizzas!

Cauliflower crust:
1 cup of cauliflower chopped in food processor until it resembles a grainy consistency (1 head of cauliflower will make 3-4 pizzas, so you can save the rest in a container in the fridge for up to a week if you would like to make other recipes with cauliflower rice)
1 cup of mozzarella cheese shredded
1 beaten egg
1T of minced garlic
a dash of salt and pepper

Cook the chopped cauliflower in a microwave for 8 min to soften. Stir to release some heat. Add 1 beaten egg, cheese, garlic, salt and pepper. Heat oven to 450 degrees.
Spread and pat cauliflower mixture on a sprayed cookie sheet into a thin crust. Note* the thinner the crust the more crispy it will be, but not enough to pick up and eat with your hands. Experiment and find the thickness your family prefers. Bake the crust for 15-20 min or until the top begins to brown. Remove from oven. Add pre-cooked toppings and place under broiler for 5-10 min or until cheese browns.

Toppings:
*all toppings must be pre-cooked whatever you decide to use*
4T of spaghetti sauce of your choice
1 cup of cheese of your choice
Choice of chopped veggies (I used peppers and onions)
Choice of meat (I used turkey pepperoni, but you could use anything)
*My next pizza will be a tomato, spinach, mozzarella, basil!*

Best in health,
