Roasted Cauliflower Pizza Bites

Ingredients

  • 1 LARGE head cauliflower sliced into flat, disc like pieces as shown. (larger heads of cauli work best!) you will have extra unused pieces-reserve for another meal.
  • 2 Tbsp avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil
  • Pinch of Sea Salt and Garlic Powder
  • All natural low sugar pizza sauce (small glass jar)
  • 1/2 cups natural mozzarella cheese
  • No-nitrate pepperoni Applegate brand is great

Instructions

  • Brush cauliflower(both sides) with oil. Lay flat on a large sheet pan.
  • Sprinkle with sea salt & a touch of garlic powder.
  • Roast in your preheated 400 degree oven on a flat sheet pan for about 10 minutes per side. 20 minutes total, flipping once. We want em’ golden brown, and a little crispy!
  • Remove from oven. Heat oven to broil.
  • In the mean time, place a tiny tsp dollop of pizza sauce onto the center of each cauliflower bite, followed by a tiny pinch of natural mozzarella(or fav Italian cheese), and pepperoni. I cut my pepperoni with a mini cookie cutter, alternately-you can cut larger pepperoni into fourths.
  • Place pan back into the oven & broil for 1-2 minutes until bubbly.
  • Sprinkle with fresh thyme. (optional)
