Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 12 slices turkey pepperoni
  • 1/2 cup baby spinach, roughly chopped

  • Crushed red pepper, optional

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven according to the cauliflower crust package directions.
  2. Place the crust on a sheet pan or pizza pan and prebake if recommended on the package.
  3. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edge.
  4. Top with the spinach, mozzarella, and turkey pepperoni.

  6. Sprinkle with basil or crushed red pepper if desired, then slice and serve.

Gourmet Geek Tip

Prebake the crust if recommended to help prevent a soggy center. | Place the spinach under the cheese so it does not dry out. | Serve with a simple green salad.
