INGREDIENTS
200g Cauliflower
1 Egg
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
3 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
1 handful Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Wash and roughly chop the cauliflower into florets. Pulse in a food processor until it has a rice-like texture.
Transfer the riced cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and microwave for about 5 minutes until soft. Allow it to cool, then place in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.
In a bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, egg, and Parmesan cheese. Season lightly with salt and pepper and mix until a dough-like consistency forms.
Press the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet to form a thin, even crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until edges begin to turn golden.
Remove from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over the crust. Top with slices or shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving. Enjoy your nutritious Cauliflower Crust Margherita Pizza!
