Before you throw your arms up in disgust, I know this is a completely non-Mexican dish in terms of authenticity. But I am shamelessly gimmicky when it comes to food sometimes, and I love to mix together my favorite cuisines…and this one is a hybrid of Pizza (Italy) and tacos or nachos (Mexican-American).

Ingredients
Crust
- 1 cauliflower head, chopped into florets
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- ½ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp chili powder
- Salt and pepper
Topping
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- ½ onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp ground chili powder
- 1 Tbsp tomato paste
- 2 tomatoes, finely chopped
- 1 ¾ cups grated cheddar cheese
To Serve
- 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 4 Tbsp full-fat sour cream
- 1 avocado, sliced into cubes
- 1 fresh lime, halved
How to make:
- Line 2 baking trays or pizza stones with baking paper and preheat the oven to 390 degrees Fahrenheit
- In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the blitzed cauliflower, eggs, cheese, paprika, chili, powder, salt and pepper
- Spread the cauliflower mixture onto your lined baking trays or stones into a circle shape and pop into the oven to pre-bake for 12 minutes
- While the cauliflower base is baking, prep the topping: drizzle the olive oil into a deep sauté pan and place over a medium-high heat
- Add the beef and allow to brown for a few minutes
- Add the garlic, onion, cumin, coriander, chili powder, tomato paste and tomatoes and stir to combine. Allow to simmer and reduce for about 10 minutes
- Take the pizza bases out of the oven and spread the beef and tomato mixture over them, leaving a little clear space at the edge of the bases to prevent overspill in the oven. Top with cheese and pop back into the oven for a further 10 minutes or until the base is golden and the cheese is bubbly
- To serve: scatter the pizzas with fresh cilantro and dollop the sour cream over the top. Have the avocado and limes on the side so your guests can add them as they please
