Cauliflower Crust Pizza

Pizza is definitely "THE BOMB"! I had always heard of people talking about cauliflower crust pizzas, however I never had one. So in the midst of all these new recipes I'm trying out lately, I told myself "why not finally try a cauliflower crust"! So I got my hands dirty and figured out how to make one. I can't compare with other cauliflower crusts, but I was very pleasantly surprised at the fact that you hardly taste the cauliflower. It's really just like eating a normal pizza but with less carbs!

Hope you like it, and have fun choosing pizza toppings!

Ingredients

Cauliflower Pizza Dough

1 Cauliflower head

2 Eggs

2/3cup Grated cheese

1/8tsp Salt

1tsp Oregano

Directions

-Preheat your oven at 350F.

-Cut the cauliflower into florets and wash it.

-Put the florets in the food processor and blend until the cauliflower becomes as small as rice or couscous.

-Then put it in a bowl and pop it in the microwave for 10 minutes until it’s cooked. (A bit wet)

-Let it cool down until it’s cold enough to touch.

-When it’s cool enough, put it in a cheese cloth or a clean rag, and squeeze as much water as you can out of it.

-Now put the squeezed cauliflower in a bowl.

-Add all of the ingredients above and mix them well.

-Take your pizza pan and spread the dough evenly on the pan with your hands.

-Put it in the oven for 10 minutes.

-Now take it out and garnish your crust as you like!

You can use oil with Italian herbs and spices instead of tomato sauce. I personally loveeee a good tomato sauce on my pizza so I made one! You can use an already made canned pizza sauce or you could also make one. If you need a recipe for that, here’s mine!

7 Garlic cloves

Directions

-In a hot pot with olive oil, put the crushed garlic, the minced onion, the minced celery and the peeled and minced carrot.

-Let them cook for about 2 minutes, the add the tomato paste.

-Mix everything well, then add the tomatoes, the dried oregano, the thyme and the basil.

-Now add the water, lower the heat and let it cook for about 20 minutes. (Make sure the carrots are cooked after the 20 minutes)
