Cauliflower Pesto Chicken Pizza

Today I discovered one of the best low-carb alternatives to Pizza - Cauliflower Crust Pesto Chicken Pizza.

This recipe is so simple to make and tastes delicious!!

1 head of cauliflower
1 egg
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 tbsp. oregano (divided)
1 tsp. basil
1 grilled chicken breast
1 tomato
4- 6 oz. pesto
1 c. fat-free mozzarella cheese


First, I rinsed one head of cauliflower and cut the florets into pieces. Next, throw all of the cauliflower into a food processor (may have to do small batches at a time). Once all of the cauliflower is pureed into a "rice-like" texture, place it in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 8 minutes.

While the cauliflower is in the microwave, you can start to cook your chicken for the pizza topping.

When the cauliflower is done in the microwave, place in a towel and soak up the moisture as much as possible. Put the cauliflower back in the bowl and add 1 egg and a couple dashes of salt and pepper. Mix it all together and form the dough into a ball while in the bowl.

Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray and spread the cauliflower across the pan into a pizza shape (Don't make too thick or won't cook thoroughly). Bake the crust for 10- 15 minutes (should look golden/brown).

 Next spread the pesto across the cauliflower crust, add fat-free mozzarella cheese, oregano, basil, sliced tomato, and grilled chicken.

Bake in oven at 450 degrees for an additional 10-15 minutes (make sure edges are crispy).

Delicious!!!!!
