Cauliflower Crust Pizza with Basil-Chive Pesto (Kopie)

*****
Serves 4-6
1 head cauliflower, chopped
3/4 cup ground almonds, or almond flour
3 flax eggs
salt
Favorite vegetables
*1 recipe Basil-Chive Pesto (below)

Method: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Add cauliflower to a blender or food processor, and pulse until the cauliflower appears "riced."

Transfer riced cauliflower to a large bowl, and add ground almonds, a dash of salt and flax eggs. Stir well until mixture forms a doughy ball. Lightly flour a pizza pan, and spread "dough" on the pan using a spatula.

Bake crust for 25 minutes. Meanwhile, make the Basil-Chive Pesto. When the crust is golden brown and crispy on the ends, remove from the oven and spread out the Basil-Chive Pesto. Add vegetables and return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes (lightly saute vegetables first if you prefer them tender).
