Ingredients

1/2 cup Grated mozzarella cheese
1 tbsp Tomato Paste organic
12 pieces Pepperoni No Added Nitrates
4 pieces Cauliflower thins 1 package

Equipment

1 Convection Toaster Oven
1 Spatula
1 Cheese grater
1 Small Spoon

Method

Step One
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Once the oven has been preheated, add the low carb thins to the convection oven and heat them for 5-7 minutes for a quick crisp. Remove, and set aside.
Step Two
Grate the mozzarella cheese, or measure the shredded cheese.
Add a thin layer of tomato paste on the previously baked cauliflower thin, and spread it with the back of a small spoon.
Optional, but add a small pinch of dried oregano.
Sprinkle on the cheese, and top it off with 3-4 pepperoni slices.
Step Three: Golden Brown
Then return the pizza thins to the convection oven and set it to melt or broil for 1-2 minutes.
Rotate halfway through for an evenly beautiful, melty, golden, cheesy finish.
Serve as a midday snack or dinner! Packs of cauliflower thins usually include 4 thins, enough for two servings.

Notes

Tip:

Two of my favorite ways to crisp them include using a small convection oven or a hot skillet.

Still, when turning these into low-carb pepperoni pizza thins, I prefer to start them in a countertop convection oven for a quick crisp. Then add the sauce and cheese on top. I have found this way to turn them the crispest, which I love in this cauliflower thin recipe.

Ingredient Substitutions

Cauliflower Thins - Instead, use these Trader Joe's cauliflower pizza crusts made with cauliflower, which are also low-carb and delicious. These are slightly larger and have Italian seasonings like oregano.

Tomato Paste - If you prefer or only have tomato sauce in the pantry, that works!

Cheese - A melty cheese is perfect like mozzarella cheese, or a melty cheese like cheddar cheese or Monterrey jack.

Pepperoni Slices - Swap it with a different cut; add salami or your favorite cold cut instead of pepperoni.

My favorite restaurant makes a spicy and sweet pepperoni pizza. If you're ok with honey, add a pinch once it's out of the oven, and sprinkle on some red pepper flakes.

Servings

Packs of cauliflower thins usually include four thins, enough for two servings. Or if you're hungry, all four could be considered the equivalent of a personal pie.
