Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Cauliflower florets
- 1 large Egg
- 50 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 150 grams Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 150 grams Canned tuna in water, drained
- 50 grams Pitted black olives, sliced
- 150 grams Tomato sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they resemble rice-like grains.
Transfer the processed cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 8 minutes until softened.
Let the cauliflower cool for a few minutes, then place it in a clean towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a mixing bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, egg, Parmesan cheese, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Mix well and form the mixture into a round crust shape on the prepared baking sheet, approximately 0.5 cm thick.
Bake the cauliflower crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown and firm.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over it.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.
Scatter the drained tuna and sliced black olives over the cheese.
Sprinkle dried oregano over the top.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your low-carb Pizza Tonno!
