Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large Egg
- 4 oz Cream cheese
- 2 cups Baby spinach
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Chop the cauliflower into florets and place them in a food processor. Pulse until it reaches a rice-like consistency.
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 5 minutes, then allow it to cool slightly.
Once the cauliflower is cool enough to handle, place it in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and egg. Mix until a dough forms.
Press the cauliflower dough onto the prepared baking sheet to form an even layer about 1/4-inch thick.
Bake the crust for 15 minutes or until it begins to turn golden brown.
In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted. Mix in the cream cheese, stirring until it's fully melted and forms a creamy sauce.
Season the spinach mixture with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Stir well to combine.
Once the cauliflower crust is done, spread the creamy spinach mixture over it evenly.
Top with the remaining 0.5 cup of mozzarella cheese.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, slice, and serve.
