LEAN & GREEN CHEESE CAULIFLOWER CRUST PIZZA
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 425*F.
- Spread the cauliflower over a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow cooling before removing it from the oven.
- Squeeze the cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel to remove any extra moisture. Combine the cauliflower with the eggs and salt (if desired).
- Spread the cauliflower batter evenly over a parchment-lined sheet pan and press into a 12-inch round. Bake for 8 minutes at 400°F.
- When the crust is done, set it aside to cool while you prepare the toppings. In a small bowl, gently toss cherry tomatoes with salt (optional) and basil.
- Remove the sheet pan from the oven, spread out the finished toppings, and set aside to cool. Then, after 10 to 12 minutes at 400°F, sprinkle the desired amount of mozzarella cheese on top of the ingredients and bake until golden brown.
- Cut the pizza into 8 equally-sized pieces (2 slices per serving).
