It goes without saying that pizza is typically a crowd favorite, but isn't the best option when you're trying to watch what you eat. Swap the dough for a cauliflower crust, and you can still have that pizza fix without the guilt - and even enjoy more flavor!
Ingredients
- Nonstick spray
- 2 1/2 cups cauliflower, grated (about half a large head)
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 1 1/4 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- Kosher salt & freshly ground pepper
- 1/4 cup tomato sauce
- 1 cup grape tomatoes, sliced in half
- 2 cloves garlic, sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper, and preheat the oven to 425 degrees
- Grate the cauliflower using a box grater until you have two cups of cauliflower crumble. Place in a large bowl and microwave for seven to eight minutes, or until soft. Remove from the microwave, and let cool
- Mix in the egg, one cup mozzarella, parmesan cheese, and salt & pepper. Once combined, pat into a 10-inch round on the prepared pizza pan. Spray lightly with nonstick spray and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown
- Top the pizza with the sauce, 1/4 cup mozzarella, grape tomatoes, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Bake in the oven until melted and bubbly, about another 10 minutes. Top with basil before serving.
