Cauliflower Pizza

Ok, stay with me here - I love this and it's a much healthier version of pizza ... even if you aren't looking for a healthier version of pizza it's worth trying! I know it sounds weird but it's good - Dave will even eat it (when I won't let him order regular pizza!) and seems to like it - or doesn't complain about it if he doesn't haha :).  After baking the crust for a few minutes add whatever toppings you like (we like mushroom, canadian bacon and fresh tomatoes) - or you can top the crust with just cheese (no sauce) and bake it for a few more minutes, then cut into "breadsticks" which is also yummy and makes a good side dish. C'mon, try it :)

I follow this recipe (click here to see original post), but there are many recipes online if you want to check them out. Note: after microwaving the cauliflower I press paper towels on it to remove as much moisture as possible, I don't put it on a towel like the recipe says.

Ingredients: 

• 1 head cauliflower, stalk removed
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until fine. Steam in a steamer basket and drain well. (I like to put it on a towel to get all the moisture out.) Let cool.
In a bowl, combine the cauliflower with the mozzarella, Parmesan, oregano, salt, garlic powder and eggs. Transfer to the center of the baking sheet and spread into a circle, resembling a pizza crust. Bake for 20 minutes.
Add desired toppings and bake an additional 10 minutes.
