Tuesday night's are CRAZY in my house. Both boys have piano lessons, Kickboxing, and I work all day. It's also buy one get one free large pizza at a local pizza joint, so we take advantage of this! However, I don't want to derail my nutrition goals. Sometimes I'll eat a slice or two, but most Tuesdays, I make this delicious dairy free, gluten free cauliflower pizza crust I eat the whole pizza (the crust has 250 calories). I just add veggies and a sprinkling of almond milk mozzarella shreds I buy at Trader Joes. It's delicious and filling!! Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
• 2 cups riced cauliflower
• 2 large eggs
• 3 tablespoons almond flour
• 2 tablespoons avocado oil
• 1 teaspoon fine salt
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Preheat oven to 405ºF.
2) Microwave the riced cauliflower for 5 minutes then transfer it to a nut milk bag or clean kitchen towel. Carefully squeeze out as much water as you can. Let it rest a few minutes then squeeze out even more water.
3) You should have about a cup of this cauliflower paste. Add that to a large bowl and mix in the rest of the ingredients until a soft dough forms.
4) Line a sheet pan with parchment paper (I used my silt-pat mat) and shape your pizza crust on it. Do not spread it thinner than ¼ inch or it will tear.
5) Bake for 25-30 minutes until the cauliflower crust is golden in color and lightly browned on the edges.
6) Add your favorite toppings and pop it in the oven for an extra 5 minutes.
