Be sure to double-check for hidden gluten on any packaged foods or seasonings you add!

Ingredients

1 cauliflower, stemmed and roughly chopped

1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling

1 tablespoon minced onion

2 garlic cloves, peeled and minced

1 teaspoon dried oregano

2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese

2 egg whites

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a food processor, add the cauliflower in sections and pulse 10 times until it has a rice-like consistency. Place into a dry, clean dishcloth, squeeze and wring out any water into the sink. Pour onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 25 minutes, or until dry and lightly golden. Remove and cool. In a large mixing bowl, add cauliflower and remaining ingredients. Mix together until dough forms, then press mixture into two 8-inch circles on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, if desired. Turn oven up to 450°F and bake for 20 minutes.

To make a pizza, cover baked crust with 3 tablespoons pizza sauce, ¼ cup mozzarella cheese and chopped vegetables. Return to oven and bake 8 minutes, or until cheese is melted and toppings warm. Cut into 4 slices and enjoy.
