INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cauliflower
2 large Egg Whites
4 ounces Part-skim Fresh Mozzarella
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
5 Fresh Basil leaves
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rice the cauliflower by pulsing florets in a food processor until it resembles rice. Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and microwave for 5-7 minutes until softened. Let cool slightly.
Place the cooked cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, egg whites, salt, and pepper. Mix until it forms a sticky, cohesive dough.
Spread the mixture onto the parchment paper in a circular shape about 1/4 inch thick. Drizzle with olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the crust starts to become firm and lightly golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over the top.
Add slices or small chunks of fresh mozzarella evenly over the sauce.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving. Enjoy your healthy, flavorful pizza!
