Gluten Free, Grain Free Cheesy Garlic Cauliflower Bread Sticks

I've seen people posting a lot of recipes for cauliflower bread sticks and pizza crusts. I was pretty skeptical at first, but figured it was worth a try. They turned out good.. I almost got my husband to try them (he doesn't like cauliflower), until he saw me typing up this blog, so now I'm pretty sure that went out the window.  Honestly, the seasoning & cheese mask any kind of cauliflower taste. So, YAY for something tasty, healthy, and gluten free for those who can't have gluten.

Gluten Free, Grain Free Cheesy Garlic Cauliflower Bread Sticks 

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cooked, riced cauliflower
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 
• 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese 
• 1 egg, beaten 
• 1 tsp dried oregano 
• 1/2 tsp crushed garlic 
• 1/2 tsp garlic salt 
• olive oil 

For Topping:

• 2 tablespoons softened salted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese 
• 1/4 cup grated mozzarella cheese
• *Optional Marinara sauce for dipping 

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. 

Chop the cauliflower florets into chunks and steam them in a steamer or on the stove until slightly soft for 15 minutes. Place in a ricer or grate.

One large head should produce approximately 3 cups of riced cauliflower. The remainder can be used to make additional pizza crusts immediately, or can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.

To Make the Bread:

Prepare your baking stone or sheet by spreading a small amount of olive oil on it and top with parchment paper. 

In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup cauliflower, egg, Parmesan and Mozzarella. Add oregano, crushed garlic and garlic salt, stir.

Transfer to the baking stone or sheet, and using your hands, pat out into a large rectangle.

Bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes.

Remove from oven. 

Mix 2 TBSP butter and garlic in a small bowl and.spread the butter and garlic mixture over baked cauliflower bread and top with Parmesan and Mozzarella cheeses. 

Place back in the 450 degree oven until all cheese is melted.

Slice and Serve!
