Cauliflower Crust Pizza

Before you exit out of this post because you despise cauliflower, here me out. First of all, this pizza has no taste of cauliflower...it is completely drowned out by the gooey cheese and smooth marinara sauce. Trust me...this is the best alternative to pizza you will ever eat. Convinced yet? Well, let's get started then.

Step One
Gather your ingredients. You will need:

Crust:
3/4 cup of grated raw cauliflower

1/4 cup Egg Beaters
1/2 cup of light mozzarella cheese or any other kind of light cheese

Toppings:

1/4 cup light Mozzarella cheese

1/3 cup of marinara sauce

5 spinach leaves

5 basil leaves

5 slices of a roma tomato

Step Two

Using a food processor, process the cauliflower so it looks similar to rice.

Step Three

Measure out 3/4 cup and place on a paper towel and dab the cauliflower to try and get all the moisture out. You want it as dry as possible.

Step Four

Add the egg beaters and 1/2 cup of the cheese to the cauliflower and mix thoroughly.

 

Step Five

Place the cauliflower mixture onto a pizza pan or cast iron pan and make it as flat as possible. I would suggest also using parchment paper, if possible. It makes the flipping process more easy.

Step Six

Bake for 30 minutes at 425 degrees. Carefully flip the pizza crust over by using a spatula to lift all edges of the crust off the pan or parchment paper first. Then bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until edges are really brown and crisp. Mine came out a tad burnt, which is totally fine...it tasted quite good actually.

Step Seven

Add all the toppings to the pizza. Feel free to switch it up and add your favorite toppings. I added light Mozzarella cheese, marinara sauce, spinach leaves, basil leaves, and slices of tomato.

Step Eight

Switch your oven from bake to broil and stick the pizza back in for about 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and browned.

Step Nine

Slice it up into eight pieces and enjoy your tasty pizza creation! Oh, did I mention you get to eat this entire pizza?! Is like your own personal pizza...all for you to devour.

I sure enjoyed mine! Down to the very last bite.
