Ingredients
  • 1 large head of cauliflower, chopped
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • ⅓ cup chevre (soft goat cheese)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400F.
  2. Put a medium-sized soup pot on the stove with about an inch of water in it. Bring it to a boil.
  3. Meanwhile, add the cauliflower into your food processor in batches, pulsing until it is the consistency of rice.
  4. Add the cauliflower to the pot of boiling water, cover and cook for about 5 minutes.
  5. Strain the cauliflower through a fine mesh strainer.
  6. Transfer the cauliflower to a clean dish towel and squeeze all the excess moisture out of it. This will take some time and a ton of water will be released!
  7. When you can't squeeze any more water out, add the cauliflower to a bowl, add the goat cheese, beaten egg, salt and oregano and mix together really well. Transfer the "dough" to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (do not use wax paper).
  8. Shape the "dough" into a crust about ⅓ inch thick and building up the sides a bit. You can either make one big rectangular crust, or 2 small circular crusts.
  9. Bake the crusts for 35-40 minutes. They should be golden brown and slightly stiff on the bottom when you take them out.
  10. Now for the fun part! Choose your favorite sauce and toppings, then set to work decking out your pizzas.
  11. Place your pizza(s) in the over for another 5-10 minutes or until the cheese gets golden brown.
  12. Slice and serve immediately.
