Cauliflower Crust Pizza

This might be my guilt-free pizza for this summer. You'll be surprised how flavorful and filling it is. Just try it!


Ingredients

For the crust
2 cups grated cauliflower (about 1/2 a head)
1/4 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbsp Herb de Provence seasoning
A pinch of salt

For the toppings
1 large boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 cup asparagus, sliced
1/2 cup grape tomatoes, sliced
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. In a food processor grate cauliflower until grainy. Empty grated cauliflower into a clean dish towel. Fold the towel and wring out all the moisture from cauliflower. Transfer into a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Use parchment paper to line a baking tray (I was out, so I had to grease my pizza tray :) ). Place the cauliflower "dough" onto parchment paper and spread it with your hands until it is 1/2 inch thick. Bake for about 30 min or until it is firm enough to hold in your hands.
3. Cook chicken with spices of your choice, I used Firewood spice to give it some smokiness. When chicken is cooked all the way, wait until its cool enough to shred it.
4. When cauliflower "dough" is done, taking it out of the oven and add your toppings. You can use any other topping you want or have. Put the pizza back into the oven and broil until cheese melts.
