Cauliflower pizza does not have to be boring

on



 Many people believe "healthy" food has to be bland, or even overly healthy. This is completely false. This recipe is simple, and the toppings possibilities are endless.


  • We used two bags or 4 cups of pre-made "riced cauliflower." 
  • Follow instructions on package to steam.
  • put in cheesecloth, squeeze out excess water.
  • Mix ins are optional and are whatever you decide!
  • ***Personally, I used fresh rosemary, oregano and crushed garlic paste with  1/4 cup of grated parmesan cheese. 
  • Mix until you get a dough texture; don't be afraid to use your hands!
  • Create the size pie/s you desire-- on top of parchment paper
  • put in oven 375* for ten to 15 minutes
  • Do not fully cook the dough!
Let cool for a few minutes, room temperature is ideal, but as long as it's not piping hot, you'll be fine.
in a small bowl, mix more (fresh) herbs, salt and pepper with 1/8 c OLIVE OIL or any other oil that is NOT CANOLA OR VEGETABLE oil.
With a basting brush, brush the oil mixture over the crust.

Cover with basil pesto or leave oil basting

Put on toppings of your choosing.
*I love the crustiness of baked parmesan, so I sprinkled some along the edges of the crust and along the top.

Put in the oven for 10-15 minutes at 375*




Prosciutto, roasted garlic, fresh rosemary, blue cheese, pesto, sun dried tomatoes and caramelized onions. This was very very rich, we balanced the meal with a simple arugula salad with shaved parmesan and a lemon-rosemary dressing. 




Brussel sprouts, prosciutto, sun dried tomatoes and cheddar-jack cheese mixture.
Again, this was rich, a basic salad is the perfect side dish to balance this pie.
