Recipe:
Cauliflower Pizza Crust-- adapted from http://www.eat-drink-smile.com/2011/04/cauliflower-crust-pizza.html
Ingredients:
1 cup cooked, riced cauliflower
1 cup shredded cheese (I used half mozarella and half parmesean)
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp crushed garlic
1/2 tsp garlic salt
olive oil (optional)
pizza sauce, shredded cheese and your choice of toppings*
Directions:
To "Rice" the Cauliflower:
Take 1 large head of fresh cauliflower, remove stems and leaves, and
chop the florets into chunks. Add to food processor and pulse until it
looks like grain. Do not over-do pulse or you will puree it. (If you
don't have a food processor, you can grate the whole head with a cheese
grater - this is what I did). Place the riced cauliflower into a
microwave safe bowl and microwave for 8 minutes (some microwaves are
more powerful than others, so you may need to reduce this cooking time).
There is no need to add water, as the natural moisture in the
cauliflower is enough to cook itself.
One large head should produce approximately 3 cups of riced cauliflower.
The remainder can be used to make additional pizza crusts immediately,
or can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
To Make the Pizza Crust:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup cauliflower, egg and mozzarella.
Add oregano, crushed garlic and garlic salt, stir. Transfer to the
cookie sheet, and using your hands, pat out into a 9" round. Optional:
Brush olive oil over top of mixture to help with browning.
Bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven. To the crust, add sauce, toppings and cheese. Place
under a broiler at high heat just until cheese is melted (approximately
3-4 minutes).
Enjoy!
Note that toppings need to be precooked since you are only broiling for a few minutes.
