Cauliflower Crust Pizza with Pepperoni Hearts

Ingredients

• ½ Can Pizza Sauce
• 1 ½ Cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
• ½ Cup Shredded Mild Cheddar Cheese
• 10 Pepperonis
• Fresh Basil Leaves, Sliced
• 1 Head Cauliflower
• 2 Large Eggs
• 1 1/2 Tablespoons Italian Seasoning
• Salt & Pepper to Taste

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Discard the leaves on the cauliflower and place the head in a food processor. Pulse until fine. Place the cauliflower in a bowl, lay a paper towel over the top of the bowl and microwave for 4 minutes or until soft.
3. Place the cauliflower in a dish towel, allow to cool and then drain and press to remove as much water as possible.
4. Place the cauliflower back in the bowl and add 1 cup mozzarella, eggs and Italian seasoning; mix. Season with salt and peper.
5. Evenly spread the mixture over the parchment paper and lightly brush with olive oil. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown.
6. While baking, use a small heart shaped cookie cutter to cut the pepperoni (we had three hearts per pepperoni).
7. Remove from the oven and add the pizza sauce, remaining cheese and heart pepperonis.
8. Place the pizza back in the oven and bake for 5-6 minutes or until cheese is melted.
9. Garnish with basil (we chopped it up with scissors), slice and serve!
