Cauliflower Crust Pizza, my first time

Tonnina

Because I was asked for the recipe I used to make my Cauliflower pizza... I didn't use crushed garlic or garlic salt just the Garlic and Herb NO SALT ADDED seasonings... can't remember who makes it...
Cauliflower Crust Pizza
Serves 2; Adapted from Your Lighter Side.
Ingredients:
1 cup cooked, riced cauliflower
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp crushed garlic
1/2 tsp garlic salt
olive oil (optional)
pizza sauce, shredded cheese and your choice of toppings*
Directions:
To "Rice" the Cauliflower:
Take 1 large head of fresh cauliflower, remove stems and leaves, and chop the florets into chunks. Add to food processor and pulse until it looks like grain. Do not over-do pulse or you will puree it. (If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the whole head with a cheese grater). Place the riced cauliflower into a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 8 minutes. There is no need to add water, as the natural moisture in the cauliflower is enough to cook itself.
One large head should produce approximately 3 cups of riced cauliflower. The remainder can be used to make additional pizza crusts immediately, or can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
To Make the Pizza Crust:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup cauliflower, egg and mozzarella. Add oregano, crushed garlic and garlic salt, stir. Transfer to the cookie sheet, and using your hands, pat out into a 9" round. Optional: Brush olive oil over top of mixture to help with browning.
Bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven. To the crust, add sauce, toppings and cheese. Place under a broiler at high heat just until cheese is melted (approximately 3-4 minutes).
Enjoy!
*Note that toppings need to be precooked since you are only broiling for a few minutes.

I would say to spread it out THIN! Like half an inch or less if you can!
I made this with cauliflower that I had boiled for 3 minutes and then put in ice water to stop the cooking. I then put the cauliflower in the freezer 'till the right time to cook this came about. (My husband wanted domino's and I didn't) I took the cauliflower out, defrosted it in the microwave, 'riced' it in my food pro and it was kinda wet. If you make it with frozen cauliflower it will not firm up and be stiff enough to hold unless you take out the extra water, but it will still taste amazing!
