    Cauliflower Crust Pizza

    Cauliflower Crust Pizza.  On a gluten free diet, the first thing I missed was pizza.  In 2008, there were not many gluten free options, and a gf diet was much more restrictive.  Today, many companies have embraced the alternatives, and that makes eating favorites so much easier.  In this case, a cauliflower crust pizza isn't really a substitute for a gluten pizza.  This pizza is delicious all on it's own, and eating it is a delicious treat when topped with vegetables.  I would chose cauliflower crust over a dough crust, and not feel deprived in any way.  That is the goal--food that nourishes and sustains me, not merely entertains me.  This pizza is gluten free, and if you use vegan cheese, vegan and dairy free.  Feel free to mix

    Pizza

    • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. After cauliflower is completely cool, place it in clean cotton kitchen towel and squeeze all remaining water out of it.
    • Mix cauliflower, egg, salt, minced garlic and goat cheese in bowl--make sure texture is smooth and lump free.
    • Using a 9" round pan for thick crust, or 8x13" rectangle for thinner crust, lightly brush olive oil on bottom and sides of pan.
    • Press cauliflower mixture into pan, making certain that it is evenly spread.
    • Bake crust for 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

    Pizza Toppings

    • After removing from oven, spread pizza sauce on top of baked crust. Evenly distribute vegetables and herbs--here we have chosen mushrooms, onions, red pepper, pineapple and basil, but you can use any vegetables or herbs that you like.
    • Return pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until vegetables are cooked.

    Beet Hummus

    • Add all ingredients into baking pan. Bake for 30 minutes at 375 degrees. After cooling, blend beets in small blender. Top pizza with beet hummus.
