Pizza ! Vegan, Egg free, veggies only, very scrummy

Finally I’ve tweaked this recipe enough for it to stand up against its egg white competitors. Of course egg whites have very little cal and no carb, but this base is totally intensive friendly, you could eat it for every meal if you like and stay firmly in ketosis !

It is a little ‘fiddly’ but just follow the instructions and you’ll be fine.
Enjoy !

Ingredients

Olive oil spray

2 brown onions, chopped roughly

1 tsp minced garlic (more if you like it)

1 medium cauliflower, chopped including the stem

1/2 cup Leggos low salt tomato paste (or similar)

1 tbs dried oregano

1 tbs dried thyme

2 cups (approx) of toppings sliced very thinly (red onion, zucchini, red capsicum, mushrooms, eggplant, baby spinach, tomato)

Instructions

• Preheat over to 180°C. Place pieces of baking paper on two flat oven trays and spray with some oil spray.
• In a large saucepan, add a spray of olive oil and onions, garlic and herbs. Cook until browned. Add cauliflower. Cover with water. Bring to the boil then simmer for 20 mins until falling apart.
• Tip into a small holed sieve over the sink. (Keep discarded liquid for soup if you like). Place entire contents into a clean tea towel. Using rubber gloves (as it is boiling hot) twist and strain over the sink until you get as much moisture out of the mix as possible. It should finally look like a ball of dough (see pic). As it is very hot, you may need to wring in out, open out on the bench for a few minutes, then go back and do another round.
