Ingredients
1 head cauliflower
1 egg
¼ cup coconut flour
1 tsp garlic powder
¾ cup mozzarella cheese
½ cup parmesan cheese
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp sea salt
Freshly ground pepper
5-6 thick slices mozzarella cheese
1 ½ cups ricotta cheese or cottage cheese
1/2 tsp chili flakes
1 tbsp honey
1 head bibb lettuce leaves
½ cup sliced radishes
⅓ cup roasted almonds
2 tbsp olive oil
½ lemon *juiced*
Salt + pepper to taste
Toppings: shaved ricotta salata cheese
Directions
Bring the water in a large pot or steamer to a boil. Chop your cauliflower into small florets and then add to the steamer. Steam until you are able to poke a fork through the cauliflower.
Once cooked add the cauliflower to some cheesecloth and strain out all the additional water.
Preheat the oven to 425 F. Add the cauliflower, egg, coconut flour, mozzarella cheese, parmesan, oregano, garlic powder and sea salt and pepper to a large mixing bowl. Combine all ingredients with your hands.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Take the dough and form a circular pizza shape (about 9-10in inches in diameter). Bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread on the ricotta (or cottage) cheese, top with the fresh mozzarella slices, and chili flakes. Bake for another 10 minutes.
While the pizza finishes baking make the butter lettuce salad. Toss together the lettuce, radishes, roasted almonds with lemon juice and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Let the pizza cool slightly and drizzle with honey, then top with the salad and garnish with freshly grated ricotta salata cheese.
