Want a healthier pizza crust? Cauliflower pizza crust By @laceybaier ~ For Crust: 1 large head cauliflower (to make 3 cups cauliflower rice) 1 egg* 1/4 tsp dried oregano 1/4 tsp sea salt 1/8 tsp garlic powder 2 tbsp parmesan, shredded* 3 oz goat cheese* For The Pizza Toppings: 1 boneless skinless chicken breast 1/4 tsp sea salt 1/4 tsp black pepper 1/8 tsp garlic powder handful baby spinach 3-4 oz fresh mozzarella, sliced Instructions Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Turn the cauliflower into rice using either a kitchen grater and grating the cauliflower just like you would cheese or using a food processor. Grate enough of the cauliflower to produce 3 packed cups of cauliflower rice. Lay out the "rice" evenly on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. We need to first roast the cauliflower to soften it before creating our crust so place this into the oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, tossing every so often. Once the rice is tender and beginning to turn golden brown, remove the rice from the oven and transfer into a clean, thin dishtowel or cheesecloth. Wrap up the rice and twist the towel to squeeze any excess moisture out. Place the drained rice into a mixing bowl, along with the egg, dried oregano, 1/4 tsp,. kosher salt, garlic powder, grated parmesan cheese, and crumbled goat cheese. Mix this together until fully combined. On a clean, new sheet of parchment paper, pour the rice mixture out and form into a small rectangle. Do not use aluminum foil for this step, as the crust will stick. Keep the dough about 1/3 of an inch thick and try to mold it to be as even and as flat as possible. You can also form the edges to stand up to mimic a crust. Once the crust is fully formed, place back into the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the crust is firm and golden brown. At this point, you can top. I drizzled olive oil over the cooked crust, followed by diced chicken breast, followed by a handful of baby spinach and about 2-3 ounces of sliced mozzarella cheese. Once you have your toppings, place back into the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the spinach is wilted, about 6-8min
