Cauliflower Pizza

I saw this recipe on one of my friends Facebook feeds and it sounded so interesting that I just had to try it out. Cauliflower Bread-sticks, or as I like to call it Cauliflower Pizza! Now just for reference, here is a link to the original posting

Ingredients:
1 - large head of cauliflower
2 - cloves of garlic, minced
2 - large eggs, lightly beaten
4 - oz of mozzarella cheese
1 - teaspoon of onion soup mix
salt and pepper to taste
4 - oz of orange cheddar cheese for a topper

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees
chop the cauliflower into chunks and put into the microwave for 5 minutes (it's really it 5 minutes, I tried 2 minutes, not good enough, then 3 more and it was a lot softer)
Take the heated cauliflower, put it into a food processor and blend it until it's mashed potato texture (the crappy boxed kind)


In a medium blow, stir together the cauliflower, eggs, mozzarella cheese, onion soup mix, salt and pepper



Lightly spray a baking pan with spray oil (PAM) and pour in the mixture (about 1/2 inch thick), if it's any thinner then those edge will burn... it happened to me...


Bake at 450 degrees for 20ish minutes (25 was too much for my batch) or until the top starts to brown. Top with the orange cheddar cheese and put it back in the oven to allow it to melt (2 - 3 minutes)



That's it and it's ready to go. It takes about 35 - 40 minutes in total but it was worth it, a glutton free alternative to pizza!

Note-to-self: Buy a better camera and take better photos!
