2 cups cauliflower, grated (about 1/2 a large head)
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cup part skim mozzarella, shredded and divided
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup tomato sauce, homemade or store bought
1 cup grape tomatoes, sliced in half
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, crushed
1/4 cup basil leaves, for garnish
Heat oven to 425°. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Grate the cauliflower using a box grater until you have 2 cups of cauliflower crumbles. Place in a large bowl and microwave for 7-8 minutes, or until soften. Remove and let cool. Mix in the egg, 1 cup mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, and salt and pepper. Once combined, pat into a 10-inch round on the prepared pizza pan. Spray lightly with non-stick spray and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden.
Top the pizza with the sauce, remaining mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Bake in the oven until melted and bubbly, another 10 minutes. Top with basil before serving.
