Cheesy Garlic Cauliflower Mock Breadsticks

Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 dash pepper

Method

  1. Cut the cauliflower head into chunks and microwave for about 8 minutes until tender. Allow it to cool slightly afterwards.
  2. Heat your oven to 450.
  3. Process the cooked cauliflower and minced garlic in a food processor. While blending, pour in the olive oil and continue until the mixture resembles mashed potatoes.
  4. Combine the cauliflower blend, beaten eggs, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  5. Lightly oil an 11.5 x 7 inch baking pan. Press the cauliflower mixture into the pan to form an even layer roughly 1/2 inch thick.
  6. Bake at 450 degrees for 25 minutes or until the surface begins to turn golden brown.
  7. Sprinkle the rest of the cheese over the top and return to the oven just until it melts.
  8. Let the bake cool for a few minutes before slicing into breadsticks and serving.
