Cauliflower Pizza

 Ingredients

1 head cauliflower

2 eggs, lightly beaten 

1/4 cup grated Parmesan

1/4 cup shredded Parmesan

1 tablespoon dried oregano/Italian seasoning 

1 teaspoon salt 

1 teaspoon garlic powder 

½ cup shredded mozzarella

2 tablespoons sour cream

1 tablespoon butter - softened or melted

½ cup almond flour 

2 Tbsp of arrowroot powder

Topping

Pizza Sauce - home made or store bought - home made recipe below

Mozzarella for topping - 16 ounce shredded cheese

Pepperoni - sliced 

Hot Sausage - roll into tiny balls and cook in frying pan 

Green olives - JR’s favorite topping 

Mushrooms - I like to pan sauté my mushrooms 

Add other toppings you enjoy

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Chop cauliflower and steam in steamer above boiling water. Drain cooked cauliflower through colander. Dry excess water with paper towels to get all water out. Blend by hand, do not use a mixer or Vitamix as that makes it too much like liquid.
• In a bowl, combine the cauliflower with the mozzarella, Parmesan, oregano, salt, garlic powder, sour cream, butter and eggs. Place mixture on parchment paper on baking sheet. Shape like a rectangle or in circle to look like a pizza. 
• Place on a pizza stone or cookie sheet on top of Parchment paper, spray parchment paper with Pam. Bake for 20 minutes.
• For firmer crust, Broil for 7 to 10 minutes, before adding toppings. Watch carefully.
• Add Pizza sauce and desired toppings and bake an additional 10 minutes at 400.
