Low Carb Vegan Cauliflower Pizza Bites

• 1 - 10 oz. bag frozen riced cauliflower, cooked according to package directions, and cooled
• 1/2 cup Just Egg
• 2 tsp. Italian seasoning
• 1 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/3 cup shredded vegan cheese (I used Violife smoked provolone)
• 1/3 cup chopped red bell pepper
• 1/3 cup chopped yellow onion
• 4 slices plant based pepperoni, chopped

Preheat oven to 400F.  Spray 8 silicone muffin cups (or 8 cups in a muffin pan) with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, combine the cooled riced cauliflower, Just Egg and seasonings and stir to mix well.  

Fold in the vegan cheese, plant based pepperoni, chopped bell pepper and onion and stir to combine.

Scoop 1/3 cup of the mixture into each muffin cup, lightly pressing down on the top to bind it together.  

Pop in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, until cooked through and the tops are golden.  Let sit in the cups for a few minutes before serving.

Yields 8 pizza bites:  64 calories, 2.9g fat, 4.4g protein, 3.5 net carbs each.

Enjoy with warmed pizza sauce, optional.
