This recipe is so easy and foolproof

A lot of times cauliflower crust recipes require a cheese cloth. Or other time-consuming techniques to get the crust to stay together. The cheese and egg help hold the whole thing together perfectly.

But not this recipe. It’s made with riced cauliflower. And it’s ready to be put in the oven in a matter of minutes.

I love a veggie pizza. So that’s what I did in the photos.

I used can of Grecian styled Eggplant from Trader Joes as the pizza sauce base. Then I topped it with, pre-roasted zucchini + roasted red and yellow peppers. I drizzled basil pesto over top when it came out of the oven. And finished it with crushed red pepper and fresh basil. This pizza had so much flavor. It was incredible.

But you can add any toppings you want. Roma tomatoes, onion, and broccoli are some of my other favorite toppings!

You could also go the meat route. My favorite meat combo ever is pepperoni, crumbled sausage, and ricotta. Don’t knock it til you try it.
