  2. 2

    Clean and remove cauliflower leaves and core. Cut into small chunks.

  3. 3

    Place cauliflower chunks into a food processor. Pulse until you get a "rice" consistency. You can also grate the cauliflower to get the same effect if you dont have a food processor.

    In a large bowl, place a kitchen towel or cheese cloth to ring out excess liquid from cauliflower.

  7. 7

    Put cooked cauliflower into the bowl with the kitchen towel and ring out as much water as you can.

  8. 8

    Increase your oven temperature to 450°F.

  9. 9

    In a large bowl, mix the ringed out cauliflower, egg whites, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and cheese.

    Spread this cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and form it into a rectangle with about 1/4-1/2 thickness.

  11. 11

    Bake the cauliflower for about 18-20 minutes. Remove from oven and add the remaining cheese for the topping. Sprinkle with garlic salt and a bit more Italian seasoning. Return to oven and bake for another 5 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
