Pepperoni Cauliflower Pizza

Pepperoni Cauliflower Crust Pizza

Yield: 2 servings (half pizza per serving)

Per serving: 1 Lean | 3 Green | 3 Condiments

Ingredients

2 cups riced cauliflower

1-1/3 cup reduced-fat, shredded mozzarella cheese, divided

¼ cup grated parmesan cheese

1 egg

½ Tsp Italian seasoning

1/8 Tsp salt

½ cup no sugar added tomato sauce (such as Rao’s)

10 slices turkey pepperoni

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 ˚F.
  2. Place riced cauliflower in a microwave safe dish, uncovered. Microwave for 10 minutes, stirring halfway through. Let cool, and then mix in 1/3-cup mozzarella, parmesan, egg, Italian seasoning, and salt.
  3. Form cauliflower mixture into a circle, about ¼-inch thick, onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.*
  4. Bake until edges are browned, about 20 minutes.
  5. Top crust with tomato sauce, remaining mozzarella, and pepperoni slices.
  6. Bake until cheese is melted, about 7 to 10 minutes.

 

*To prevent crust from sticking, lightly spray the top of the parchment paper with cooking spray. For best results, use a lightly-greased silicone baking sheet (if you have one).
