I love pizza!
I can't resist a pizza!
Pizza is the bomb!
But now that I've changed my eating lifestyle, pizza just isn't on the list of Jeep Momma's "clean eating" foods. I can still eat it, but it would have to be my splurge food for the month. Plus, when I eat all that bread I get upset with myself. My body doesn't feel so great the next day either.
So I found a bread-less crust pizza. The crust is made from cauliflower. I know it doesn't sound very good or look very good. But, I tried it tonight and it was super yummy!
Jeep Momma's Guilt-Free Pizza
(all ingredients should be organic)
1/4 cups Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cups grated Pecorino Romano Cheese
1/4 tsp Kosher salt1/4 tsp dried Basil
1/4 tsp dried Oregano
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
a couple dashes of Pepper
1 tsp almond meal
1 whole beaten egg
Preheat oven and pizza stone to 450 degrees. You can use a baking sheet if you don't have a pizza stone. Place a large piece of parchment paper or aluminum foil on a cutting board. Lightly coat with olive oil.
Wash and thoroughly dry the cauliflower. Cut off the florets, pulse in a food processor for 30 seconds until the cauliflower looks like a powdery snow. (Or you can use a blender but it's a little more work.)
You should end up with about 2 cups of cauliflower. Place the cauliflower in a microwave safe bowl and cover. Cook for 4 minutes. Allow the cauliflower to cool. Once it's cool place it in a tea towel, wrap it up and squeeze as much water out as possible. This will help the crust from being too crumbly.
Slide the crust onto the hot pizza stone and bake for 10 to 13 minutes -- until it starts to turn a golden brown. Remove from oven and add your favorite toppings. Return to the top rack of the oven and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until the cheese is melted. Let the pizza cool for 3 to 4 minutes before serving.
