For the Base:
- 3 cups cooked rice make sure it's gluten free
- 2 eggs slightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ½ cup shredded cheese like mozzarella
- Salt and Pepper to taste
For the Toppings:
- ¼ cup Pizza Sauce ensure it's gluten free
- 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese shredded
Optional Toppings:
- ¼ cup green peppers
- ¼ red onions sliced thinly
- ¼ cup white onions sliced thinly
- 1 garlic clove sliced thinly
- Parsley to taste
For the Base:
Heat up your leftover rice, you need 3 cups.
In a large bowl mix your rice, eggs, butter, shredded cheese, salt and pepper. Mix well until it comes together into a smooth mixture.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Scoop the mixture into 4 piles on the cookie sheet. Use a spoon (or your hands) to shape the piles into circles of equal size, and width. Make sure you press it together tightly. Smooth the edges.
Place in a preheated 450 degree oven and cook for 7 to 8 minutes.
Putting it all together:
Remove the crusts from the oven.
Top them with the sauce.
Top with cheese.
Top with whatever optional toppings you desire. I did one with plain cheese. One with only green peppers. One with red and white onions and garlic. And one with everything.
Place back in the oven for another 5 to 7 minutes.
Remove from the oven and place on plates.
