Description
A low-carb option for those of us who just love our pizzas too much! Tastes great and 100% guilt-free!
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower, Washed And Cored And Cut Into Large Florets
- 1 whole Egg
- 1 teaspoon Italian Herbs
- ½ cups Grated Mozzarella Cheese
- ½ teaspoons Salt
- ½ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
- Preferred Pizza Toppings
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 200 C.
If you have a food processor, use a knife and chop your cauliflower into individual florets then blitz into a rice-like texture in the food processor. If you don’t have one you can grate your cauliflower with a box grater.
Place your riced cauliflower into a big bowl and cook in the microwave for 10-12 minutes, depending on your microwave strength.
Once it’s cooked and allowed to cool, scoop as much of the cauliflower as you can into some cheesecloth (or I use a clean dishtowel). Once you have the cauliflower in your cloth/towel grab all four corners and twist in order to squeeze out as much liquid as possible. You will be surprised by how much actually does come out. This part is a bit of an arm workout but the more liquid you get out, the crisper the end product will be.
Once you’ve squeezed out as much water as humanly possible put the cauliflower back into the bowl and add your egg, herbs, mozzarella, salt and pepper and mix together well.
When that’s done, scoop out the doughy mixture and pat down into a well greased or parchment lined baking pan (or a well greased non-stick pan). Make sure to not make your base too thin.
Place your baking pan with mixture into the oven and bake it for 15 – 20 minutes.
Once it’s ready, take it out of the oven, cover with the toppings of your choice and pop back into the oven for a further 10 – 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted nicely.
