Ingredients

  • 1 small to medium head of cauliflower
  • 1 large egg or egg replacer (see above)
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese shredded
  • 1 tsp herbs oregano, basil and garlic work well

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450F. Prepare your pizza toppings as desired (we particularly like pesto, mozzarella and sausage, but to each their own).
  • Wash cauliflower and roughly chop the florets.
  • Pulse florets in a food processor until it looks like rice.
  • Microwave cauliflower "rice" in a covered container for about 3-4 minutes.
  • Pour into clean kitchen towel and let cool for several minutes.
  • Wrap the cauliflower in the kitchen towel (like your sweet little stork baby), then wring out the liquid over a sink or bowl. Use your muscles and get every last drop out or your pizza will be mushy.
  • Add the egg, cheese and herbs and mix with your hands.
  • Form the pizza on parchment paper or a silpat on a baking sheet using your hands to make your desired shape (circle, square or personal pizzas). The crust should be about 1/4" thick.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until it looks slightly browned. Your nose will tell you too.
  • Remove from oven, add toppings as desired and return to oven another 5 minutes or so.
  • Allow to cool for a couple minutes, slice as desired and enjoy! Keep in mind it's messy and fun to eat and a little more floppy than your typical pizza.
