Cauliflower Pizza Crust 
Ingredients for Crust:
1 head cauliflower, large stalk removed
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated parmigiano cheese
1 pinch kosher salt
1 large egg, beaten
Ingredients for Toppings:
6 cherry tomatoes, halved
½ cup organic tomato sauce
1 cup organic shredded mozzarella
4 leaves fresh organic basil
 
Directions:
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat oven to 400 degrees
  2. Separate the cauliflower into florets and steam in a steam basket until tender but not soggy
  3. Pulse in food processor until fine
  4. Squeeze EVERY drop of water you can out of the cauliflower using a cheese cloth. This process can take 5-10 minutes and is VERY important!
