Ingredients

  1. 1 mediumhead cauliflower
  2. 1egg, slightly beaten
  3. 1 cupMozzarella cheese, shredded, divided in half
  4. 1/2 cupshredded Parmesan cheese
  5. 1 tspdried oregano
  6. 1 tspdried basil
  7. 1/2 tspGarlic salt

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash and clean the cauliflower and cut it into chunks. Make sure you remove the core.

  2. 2

    Place the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse it until it’s a “rice” consistency

  3. 3

    In a large saucepan, heat one inch of water until it boils. Add in the cauliflower, cover with a lid, and allow it to steam for 4-5 minutes. Watch it close so that it doesn't boil over!

  4. 4

    Preheat the oven to 425°F.

  5. 5

    Use a fine mesh strainer to drain the cauliflower. Allow it to cool for a few minutes, then place the cauliflower in a clean dish towel and squeeze as hard as you can to remove any excess water.

  6. 6

    Once the cauliflower rice is drained really well, place it into a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, 1 egg slightly beaten, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, and 1/2 teaspoon Garlic salt. Stir the mixture well.

  7. 7

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray it lightly with cooking spray. Spoon the cauliflower mixture onto the pan and use your hands to form it into a 8 1/2 x 11 inch rectangle.

  8. 8

    Place in the oven for 30 minutes, or even longer until the crust is golden brown and firm.

  9. 9

    Remove the crust from the oven and top the crust with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.

  10. 10

    Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 7-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

  11. 11

    Cut into “breadsticks” and serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping. Makes about 10 breadsticks. This recipe could easily be doubled.
