Cauliflower Crust Pizza

After MANY trial and errors,
 I think I have finally mastered the cauliflower crust :) 


Whatcha need, what whatcha need!?



And so the process begins…
1. Preheat oven to 425
2. Cut up your cauliflower and place it into a food processor
3. Process until it becomes super fine, almost a fluffy rice texture

(See picture below)



Step #4.. the step that is literally CRUCIAL to crispy crust

4. Place cauliflower into a cheese cloth to drain out AS MUCH 
water as possible. The less water in the crust the more crispy and pizza like it will be.

( See cheese cloth picture below)



5. Mix cauliflower in a bowl with egg and cheese
6. Place a sheet of parchment paper over a baking sheet
7. Season "dough" with whatever you choose ( I used Mrs.Dash Garlic & Herb)
8. Spread dough across parchment paper as THIN as possible
9. Lightly spray top of "dough" with non-stick spray
10. Bake 10-15minutes




TOPPING IDEAS:
- Salsa, Black Beans, Corn, and Grond Turkey (taco pizza (as shown in mine))
- Sauce, Cheese, Pepperoni, veggies, etc. (traditional pizza)*
- Leave plain and dip in red sauce (bread sticks)


*If you are topping with traditional pizza toppings, feel free to put
the dough back into the oven after you have placed your toppings
to let the sauce and cheese heat up
