Cauliflower Crust Pizza

A low carb, low calorie, low sodium, healthy and yummy, gluten free vegan pizza? Why yes, I like that, I like that a lot. This my dear friends is what I like to refer to as a little slice of heaven here on earth.

ingredients:

• 2 cups cooked, riced cauliflower
• 4 cups Daiya mozzarella cheeze http://www.daiyafoods.com/products/mozza.asp
• 2 tablespoons fresh oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh crushed garlic
• 6 whole tomatoes + your choice of toppings

Serves 4. 

execution:

• wash and chop the cauliflower into small pieces
• boil in water for 4 minutes until softened
• place in a food processor until it looks like pieces of rice
• preheat the oven to 450 degrees
• in a bowl, combine riced cauliflower, 2 cups of Daiya cheeze, oregano, and garlic
• on a non-stick oiled cookie sheet, use your hands to form and pat the cauliflower mix into a 12" round pizza "crust" that will look like this:

• Bake at 450 degrees for 20 minutes
• While crust is browning, boil the tomatoes in hot water until mushy. Drain water, and chop tomatoes as they become a sauce like texture.  
• Remove crust from oven, and add remaining Daiya cheeze, tomatoes, and your personal toppings.
• Place under broiler for 4 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes, and then enjoy!

We ate this up quicker than you can say "low carb, low calorie, gluten free vegan pizza." Seriously though! Delicious, light, fun, and different, it's a guaranteed hit. Serve with a side of kale for a heart-healthy meal.
