Ingredients
- 3 cups (300 g) small cauliflower florets
- 1 ¼ cups (125 g) mozzarella cheese, grated
- 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- ¼ cup (30 g) chickpea flour (see note)
- 1 egg
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- Olive oil, for brushing
- ½ cup (125 ml) homemade or store-bought tomato sauce
- 1 cup (100 g) mozzarella cheese, grated
- 1 cup (25 g) arugula

Instructions
- With the rack in the lowest position, preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Oil the paper.
- In a food processor, chop the cauliflower until it resembles the texture of couscous. Place in a clean dishcloth and ring out as much liquid as possible. Place the dried out cauliflower in a large bowl.
- Add the remaining ingredients, except for the oil, to the bowl. Mix well using a spatula or your hands. Season with pepper.
- With your hands, spread out the cauliflower mixture on the prepared baking sheet into an 11-inch (28 cm) circle, about ¼ inch (5 mm) thick. Brush with oil. Bake for 17 to 20 minutes or until golden.
