Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Cauliflower florets
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.75 cup Tomato sauce (Whole30 compliant, no added sugar)
- 0.5 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 small Zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Spinach leaves
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with olive oil or cooking spray.
Using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they reach a rice-like consistency. You should have about 3 cups of riced cauliflower.
Transfer the riced cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 4-5 minutes, or until softened. Allow it to cool slightly.
Place the cooked cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial to achieving a sturdy crust.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, egg, almond flour, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix until a dough forms.
Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and press it into a 10-inch circular crust, about 1/4-inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over the surface.
Arrange the red onion, red bell pepper, zucchini, mushrooms, and spinach leaves on top of the sauce. Drizzle the veggies with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly roasted.
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then slice and serve. Enjoy your Whole30 Veggie Delight Pizza!
