Mini Cauliflower Pizza Bites




INGREDIENTS:
2 Cups Cauliflower (about 1/2 head of cauliflower)
1/4 cup egg whites
1/8 cup low fat cottage cheese
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup mini turkey pepperoni or turkey pepperoni (optional for topping)
*pizza sauce for dipping*
*other toppings of your choice*

DIRECTIONS:
1) Preheat oven to 425ºF. Spray mini muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray.
2) Wash cauliflower, and cut in half. (Save rest for later or use it if doubling recipe). Break cauliflower into segments, and place in food processor. Pulse until it reaches a rice-like texture.
3) Place cauliflower in microwave safe bowl and microwave for 8 minutes. Do not add water or cover.
4) Remove cauliflower from microwave and add the rest of the ingredients. Stir to combine. Place back in microwave for 2 minutes. Mix again.
5) Scoop cauliflower mixture into mini muffin pans or liners if you're using liners, dividing evenly between the pan. Fill to the top and press filling down so it's compact in liner.
6) Place muffin tin in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or when top starts to become become golden brown. Remove from the over, let cool completely before popping the muffins out of the pan. Serve warm with pizza sauce for dipping or add additional toppings as desired!
