Scale
- 1 Easy Cauliflower Pizza Crust
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup cupRoasted Green Enchilada Sauce
- 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup Cotija cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup red onions, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup precookedSlow Cooker Pulled Chicken (or other precooked, shredded/chopped chicken)
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Follow the instructions to make and to bake the Easy Cauliflower Pizza Crust.
- While the crust is baking for 30 minutes, prepare your topping ingredients as listed above.
- Once the crust has turned golden brown remove the crust from the oven. Top it with the Roasted Green Enchilada Sauce, leaving about 1 inch for the edge of the crust. Add the Monterey Jack cheese, Cotija cheese, thinly sliced red onions, and the shredded chicken. Pop back into the oven for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
- Carefully slide the pizza off of the parchment paper onto a cutting board, or back onto your pizza stone (if using). Use a pizza cutter to slice into wedges. Top with the fresh cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.
- Due to the nature of the cauliflower crust the pizza is best when fresh. However, you can try reheating the pizza in the oven. I have not tried this.
