Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Place pulverized cauliflower into microwave safe bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave for 4 minutes. Let cool.
Once cooled, place cooked cauliflower into a mesh strainer, fasten over a bowl and push down with flat surface (spoon or spatula) draining as much liquid as you can. Afterwards, you can also press down with towel and/or paper towel to remove additional fluid.
Add cauliflower to bowl, fluff with fork and add basil, oregano, pepper, garlic powder, salt and cheese of choice.
Add egg and mix until evenly coated.
Prep baking sheet with parchment paper. Spray prepped sheet with cooking spray prior to pressing mixture down on baking sheet until you have a "dough" that's approximately ¼ inch thick. Make sure mixture is pressed evenly and tightly together.
Bake for 25+ minutes until edges and crust is golden-dark golden brown.
Remove from oven. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Add toppings of choice and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes. ENJOY!
**Picture is a "half-and-half" pizza. - Homemade cheese spread (reduced-fat cream cheese, cojita cheese, and minced garlic). - First half: tomatoes, dried basil, oregano, cayenne and sprinkled with a little more shredded Mexican cheese. --Second half: same homemade cheese spread, leftover shredded chicken, jalepeno (pepperoncinis or banana peppers would be delicious too, jalepeno is just what I had on hand), and then drizzled with barbecue sauce.
