Healthy Pizza (Gluten Free)







For the base:

2 cups grated cauliflower
1 cup grated carrot
1 medium sized potato boiled, peeled, and mashed
2 teaspoons of pesto of your choice
1-2 teaspoon of oil
salt and pepper to taste

For the topping:
You can use any choice of vegetables that you have in your refrigerator.  I used:
Halved cherry tomatoes
Sliced mushrooms
sliced onions
Broccoli cut into bite size pieces
Shredded mozzarella

Method:

Heat oil on medium in a pan and add grated cauliflower and carrot.

Saute it for a few seconds, now add salt and mix well and let it cook until all the moisture from the pan dries out.

Once this has cooled completely, add mashed potato along with salt and pepper, pesto and mix well.

On a greased baking tray, spread the mixture to a half inch thin, even layer.

Bake this at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until the edge is light golden brown.

Now top it with your favorite vegetables and cheese and bake until the cheese has melted.

Serve hot.
