Greek Pizza with Cauliflower Crust

This is going down for dinner tonight! Who doesn't love some pizza!? This recipe is from A Finn in the Kitchen.

Ingredients:
  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • Few grinds of black pepper
  • 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
  • Drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil 
  • 2 handfuls of mixed greens or spinach
  • 1/2 medium tomato, seeded and chopped 
  • 1/2 cup pitted and sliced Kalamata olives
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese crumbles
Steam cauliflower until soft, then process in food processor until no large pieces remain. Squeeze any excess water out of the cauliflower by placing in a clean lint free tea towel or cheese cloth and squeezing until "dry." Place cauliflower in a bowl along with the egg, half the cheese, salt and pepper. Mix together well and spread into a circular shape on a pan prepped with parchment paper or baking mat. The thinner the crust, the crispier it will be and the less it will have to cook. Bake at 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes. At this point, sprinkle the garlic, olive oil and remaining cheese over the crust and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the cheese melts. Toss the remaining ingredients together and place on cooked crust for a light, flavorful, clean pizza!
