CrossKitchen Recipe - Cauliflower Crust Pizza
Cauliflower Crust Pizza
OK, I will admit that this is going perhaps too far in pursuit of low carbs. But really, it's quite tasty, easier than pizza dough from scratch, and is very healthy. It's also extremely high in fat, which is a GOOD thing in my book, particularly during times like these when I'm scrambling to try and shovel in enough calories to keep up with the damage we're doing to ourselves.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cauliflower, steamed and grated in Cuisinart
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, grated
- 2 eggs
- few tsp spices (oregano, basil, parsley, fennel...whatever you like)
- 1/2c marinara
- toppings (2 sausages, veggie or otherwise, do the trick nicely)
- the rest of the mozzarella
- some parmesan
Preheat oven to 450 degrees farenheit.
Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
In a medium bowl, combine cauliflower, egg and mozzarella. Press evenly on the pan. Sprinkle evenly with fennel, oregano and parsley.
Bake at 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven. To the crust, add sauce, then toppings and cheese. Be sure your toppings are already cooked.
Place under a broiler at high heat just until cheese is melted. Serves 4.
