Garlic bread

     Ok, so I am PUMPED to share this with you. I ate the entire thing by myself in one sitting. I don't recommend that. It was just too good. I call it garlic bread because it thins out after baking. Many cooks use this as a pizza crust. Feel free to add some sauce before the cheese to make it more of a pizza. This garlic bread is awesome the way it is though.

   The "dough" is all cauliflower! An easy way to sneak some veggies into a meal. No flour required. The reason that I love this is because you don't get that bloated feeling afterwords, like so many regular pizzas. So, get out your blenders, food processors, or ninjas!

   Also, I am finally posting an actual meal. I like making more snacky foods (if you hadn't noticed). Hope you enjoy this. I know I did. 

                                       

Serves 2  (or one!)

               Crust:

1 head of medium cauliflower

4 oz of goat cheese (Substitute Vegan Cream Cheese if dairy intolerant)

1 egg white

1 Tbs salt and pepper

2 Tbs chopped basil

2 tsp oregano

2 tsp red pepper flakes

             Topping:

2 Tbs Garlic Salt

1/2 C Shredded cheese (I used goat Pecorino Romano and Mozzarella. Substitute Vegan shreds for DF) 

1 Tbs Oregano 

1/4 C of Grated vegan parmesan 

Heat oven to 400 degrees F

1. Take Cauliflower and rinse. Then Cut into small florets. 

2. Place in a microwave bowl. Heat it for about 4 minutes, or until soft.

3. Place softened cauliflower into a food processor until "riced."

4. Add remaining crust ingredients and mix till combined. 

5. Place into a sprayed 9x13, or small pie, pan. Smash this into the pan, and place in the pre-heated oven until golden brown and edges are crisp. About 40 minutes. 

While the crust bakes prepare the topping:

1. Mix all topping ingredients together in bowl.

2. Once crust is baked, sprinkle cheese mixture evenly over the surface.

3. Bake for ten more minutes.

4. Let the garlic bread cool off completely (yes its hard but its so much better!)

5. ENJOY!! 

This recipe holds up in the fridge for a few days. It is wonderful cold.

For a more complete meal add sauteed veggies and greens atop the bread during the cheese melting process. 

For protein add pre-cooked chicken.

Pairs well with marinara sauce.
