Paleo Pizza (Cauliflower Crust)

It was so much fun to finally get togther and make a recipe together as sisters. What better way then to experiment on some Paleo Pizza! We made four pizzas by the time it was all said and done and each and every one of them got eaten. Even my good ole cowboy dad and the kids liked them! They were so dang good and it was such a good feeling to be eating a delicious pizza and not feel guilty about it! We took a lot of pictures so scroll fast if you don't feel like going through all of them. I really hope you will all try this recipe. It is so fresh and so good. The first pizza we made was not completely paleo because we added parmesan cheese to it but we made it with a cauliflower crust and a home made tomato sauce and tons of fresh toppings. The second pizza was made with a cauliflower crust and spinach sauce (which is already posted to our blog). It also had goat cheese which is lactose free for those of you who don't do dairy. Remember you can add any topping you want to make these pizzas fit your taste.

Enjoy- Rachel and Jessica

Cauliflower Crust Pizza                           
                                                         
Ingredients:                                                 I

1 Cup blended cauliflower rice                   
1 Cup of Goat Cheese                                
2 egg whites
Garlic Sea Salt                                              
                                                                   

Tomato Sauce

Ingredients:

1 can of tomato sauce
2 cloves of chopped garlic
2 TBS chopped fresh basil
salt and pepper

Chop the garlic and basil then in mixing bowl mix all ingredients together. Salt and pepper to taste.

Spinach Sauce

(recipe and previous blog post)


Topping Suggestions:
mushrooms
red onion
sausage
bacon
pepperoni
olives
green onions
fresh basil

The first thing we did was cut up our head of cauliflower and pulse them in the blender till it was shredded into pieces about the size of rice. Then shred the cheese. In a mixing bowl add 1 cup of cauliflower and two egg whites. Mix together and then add in your 1 cup of shredded Goat cheese with about 1 1/2 teaspoon of Garlic Salt. Mix well.

Once you get your crust mixed you will want to turn your oven on to bake at 400 degrees. We used a pizza stone covered in parchment paper to bake our pizzas on but you could also just use a baking sheet covered in parchment paper. The dough is slightly delicate and we found the best way to spread it out on the parchment paper was by patting the dough softly with a spatula till you get the dough about a quarter inch thick flattened out.

Then pop that dough in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Depending on how your oven cooks I would check it every two minutes after that till it gets a nice golden brown crust on the outside.

The add your tomato sauce or Spinach Sauce

mmm... goat cheese

sausage and pepperoni

 mushrooms...sausage... green onions and anything else you like!

Look at all those toppings!!

Once your toppings are on. Put the pizza back in the oven on broil for about 5 minutes. Watch carefully so that it doesn't burn!

Seriously...how amazing does that look?

We were so surprised how wonderful they came out!

yum!!
