This is probably the healthiest and most tasty pizza you will ever eat, it is made from a no-fuss cauliflower base. It is completely paleo, gluten free, dairy free and absolutely perfect for those on a clean eating diet. You can adjust the ingredients if you are vegetarian or like a little bit of cheese on your pizza, however I would recommend you try without first.
What you need:
Pizza Base
5 Cups Grated cauliflower
2 Eggs
Fresh basil
Chilli powder
Salt and pepper
Sauce
3 Tomatoes
Crushed garlic
Chilli Powder
Salt and pepper
Topping
1/3 Chicken Breast
Crushed garlic
Chilli Powder
Salt and pepper
Red onion
Red Capsicum
Cherry tomatoes
Fresh basil
Pizza Base
Pre heat oven to 180°C fan bake. Prepare a baking tray with baking paper.
In a food processor blend all ingredients (cauliflower, two eggs, cut fresh basil, chilli powder, salt and pepper). Note: If your cauliflower has been grated you may mix ingredients by hand and have a slightly more textured base.
Place mixture into the middle of a tea towel and squeeze excess moisture.
Spoon mixture onto the middle of the baking paper, flatten with spoon and ensure the thickness of the base is consistent especially at the edge of the base. The recipe makes two medium size bases.
Cook for 10 - 15 minutes, flip very carefully and cook for a further 5 - 10 minutes on the other side. Note: the best way to flip the base is to ease from the paper with a spatular, place another piece of baking paper on top and flip inbetween your hands.
Base should be golden on the edges, it will be a little fragile so handle carefully.
Sauce
Dice three tomatoes add to a saucepan with a spoonful of crushed garlic, chilli powder, salt and pepper. Leave to simmer on a low heat, stirring occasionally until it reduces to a thick sauce.
Chicken
Dice half a chicken breast and cook in a hot pan with a tablespoon of coconut oil, add a tablespoon of crushed garlic, chilli powder, salt and pepper, cook and put aside ready for your pizza.
Toppings
Spoon tomato sauce onto your base, spreading evenly right to the edges of the pizza. Add your cooked chilli chicken and shredded basil leaves. Cut cherry tomatoes in half, cut red onion and red capsicum and cover your pizza in colour! Cook for a further 10 minutes.
Extras
Once cooked, topped with fresh basil leaves and enjoy!
You can easily add ingredients to this pizza to accommodate to your taste buds. This is a paleo, dairy free and gluten free pizza, however, if you enjoy a bit of dairy you might like to add parmesan cheese to the pizza base mix and even a few slices of buffalo mozzarella cheese on top before cooking. Feel free to change up the veggies and meat used or even create a vegetarian version. In saying that, this version I have created is absolutely delicious just as it is.
Hope you love it as much as I did!
