Rice Crust for Pizza recipe

1 servings

2 cups water

1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice

1 egg, beaten

1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (optional)

Place water and rice in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil.

Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

In a medium size mixing bowl, mix together cooked rice, beaten egg, mozzarella cheese, and Tabasco sauce.

Press mixture evenly into a lightly greased 12 inch pizza pan, covering bottom and sides.

Bake in preheated oven for 4 minutes, or until set.

Remove crust from oven, and let cool slightly before layering with your favorite sauce and other goodies.
