Cauliflower Pizza Crust

 
Cauliflower Pizza Crust

 

Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese

1/4 Parmesan cheese
2 eggs (beaten)
oregano
salt
tomato sauce
pizza toppings

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cut the head of cauliflower into florets.

Place the florets into a Vitamix blender or food processor.














Pulse the cauliflower until it looks like a rice















Transfer the cauliflower rice into a microwave safe dish.
Microwave for 5 minutes.


















Strain the cooked "rice" and dump it into a thin dish towel. You may want to let it cool first.
Wrap it up and squeeze as much water out of the cauliflower rice as possible.
The more water you squeeze out, the better your crust will stick together.

Put the drained rice into a medium sized bowl. 
Mix in the beaten eggs, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, oregano and salt.

















Grease a baking sheet or use a pizza stone.
Form a crust shape with the cauliflower mixture.

















Make the sides a little higher to keep the toppings from falling off later.
Bake for about 35 minutes, or until golden brown.

















Add the sauce and toppings.

((We used turkey sausage, spinach, peppers, onion, bacon pieces, and fresh mozzarella cheese. You can add your favorites!))
















Cook for another 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted to your liking and crust is firm.

Enjoy!












Tip: Make the cauliflower rice ahead of time and store it in the fridge until you are ready to bake!
