Ingredients

  • 1. CAULIPOWER® Cauliflower Pizza Crust
  • 2. 4 tsp of olive oil, separated
  • 3. A large carrot, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 4. A pinch of salt
  • 5. A dash of ground black pepper
  • 6. A portion of red onion, thinly sliced
  • 7. 4 oz of room temperature goat cheese
  • 8. An egg yolk
  • 9. A minced clove of garlic
  • 10. Zest and juice of a lemon
  • 11. A sprinkle of salt and pepper to your liking
  • 12. 2 tsp of honey
  • 13. A generous cup of baby arugula

Step 1

To start this delightful culinary journey, preheat your oven to a cozy 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and grab two trusty baking sheets lined with foil for easy cleanup later on.

Step 2

Begin by gently tossing those vibrant carrot slices in a teaspoon of olive oil, then lovingly season them with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Do the same dance with the red onion, giving them their own treatment of oil, salt, and pepper. Separate these colorful companions onto their designated baking sheets and let them mingle in the warm oven for about 10 minutes.

Step 3

While the carrots and onions are getting to know each other in the oven, whip up a creamy concoction in a bowl by combining goat cheese, a golden egg yolk, minced garlic, and a zesty touch of lemon zest. Stir until the mixture becomes velvety smooth, then season it with a dash of salt and pepper. Set this delectable blend aside for later.

Step 4

Once the veggies have had their roasting session, take out the carrots and drizzle them with a touch of honey for an extra hint of sweetness. Now, crank up the oven temperature to a toasty 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) to prepare for the next step.

Step 5

Spread the luscious goat cheese mixture generously over the pizza crust, making sure to leave a charming border of about 1/4 inch. Adorn the cheese-covered canvas with the roasted carrots and a sprinkle of the flavorful red onion.

Step 6

Pop the pizza masterpiece into the now heated oven and let it bake until the cheese transforms into a gooey, golden delight, roughly 13 to 15 minutes of mouthwatering anticipation.

Step 7

While the pizza works its magic in the oven, toss a handful of fresh arugula in a bowl with a drizzle of the remaining two teaspoons of olive oil, a squeeze of bright lemon juice, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper for a refreshing salad to accompany your culinary creation.

Step 8

Once the pizza emerges from its oven sanctuary, slice it into portions and crown each slice with a vibrant mound of the dressed arugula salad. Alternatively, you can present the salad as a charming side dish to complement the flavors of the pizza.
