So I saw a picture of a pizza dough made with cauliflower last week that looked amazing and I wanted to know what all the fuss was about so I decided to give it a try.
Well, what can I say….. it really is delicious and it does look very good, but I gotta say, it doesn’t substitute pizza at all. At least not for me! If you’re craving pizza, just have a slice of the real thing because this one will not do. But, if you’re up for something fun to make, absolutely delicious and very different and healthy, than yes, you should definitely try this recipe.
This one is my version as I adapted the original recipe by adding a few ingredients and the toppings. *Remember to always use organic ingredients*.
Hope you all enjoy as a substitute for pizza or just a great snack!
Cauliflower pizza with mozzarella, sun dried tomatoes and arugula
Ingredients:
for the dough:
1 cauliflower (roasted with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, 2 bay leaves and freshly grated nutmeg)
2 eggs
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup shredded mozzarella
for the toppings:
Tomato sauce
5 –6 sun dried tomatoes
6-7 artichokes
1 extra cup shredded mozzarella
fresh arugula
Directions:
Roast the cauliflower until very soft.
Using a food processor, purée the cauliflower.
Add 2 eggs and pulse all together.
Add flour and mozzarella and a little salt and mix.
Spread this dough over a pizza pan/tray lined with parchment paper. Use the back of a wooden spoon to create the desired shape.
Bake it for about 20 minutes on a 375 F oven.
Take it out of the oven and add all the other ingredients (tomato sauce, mozzarella, artichokes and sun dried tomatoes), except for the fresh arugula.
Bake it for another 30 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted.
Add the fresh arugula and serve it hot.
