Ingredients

• 1 head Cauliflower florets
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
• 4 slices Prosciutto slices
• 1 cup Fresh arugula
• 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Pulse cauliflower florets in a food processor until you have a rice-like consistency.

Step 3

Transfer the cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for about 4-5 minutes. Let it cool.

Step 4

Once cooled, place the cauliflower rice in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

Step 5

In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, egg, Parmesan cheese, half of the mozzarella cheese, salt, and garlic powder. Mix well to form a dough.

Step 6

Spread the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and press it into a 1/4 inch thick circle.

Step 7

Brush the surface with olive oil and bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown and firm.

Step 8

Remove the crust from the oven, spread pizza sauce evenly over the base, and top with the remaining mozzarella cheese.

Step 9

Arrange the prosciutto slices over the cheese and return to the oven for another 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and melted.

Step 10

Remove from oven and top with fresh arugula, cherry tomatoes, and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes.

Step 11

Slice and serve immediately for a delicious low carb pizza experience.
