Cheesy Cauliflower Breadsticks
These grain-free "breadsticks" are made with cauliflower instead of flour. Serve with your favorite marinara sauce.— ***You could possibly use this for a pizza crust.
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 30 min. YIELD: 12 servings.
Ingredients
1 medium head cauliflower, cut into 1-inch florets (about 6 cups) ((You can buy riced cauliflower in the freezer section. Three bags would be six cups that the recipe calls for I think. This will cut out other steps in this recipe and make it even quicker.))
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 large egg
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Marinara sauce, optional
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 425°. Process cauliflower in batches in a food processor until finely ground. Microwave, covered, in a microwave-safe bowl on high until tender, about 8 minutes. When cauliflower is cool enough to handle, wrap in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze dry. Return to bowl.
2. Meanwhile, in another bowl, mix cheeses together. Stir half of cheese mixture into cauliflower, reserving remainder. Combine next six ingredients; stir into cauliflower.
3. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, shape cauliflower mixture into an 11x9-in. rectangle. Bake until edges are golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Top with reserved cheese; bake until melted and bubbly, 10-12 minutes. Cut into 12 breadsticks. If desired, serve with marinara sauce.
