For Topping:

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Cauliflower Dough

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Steam or boil cauliflower florets for about 5-7 minutes until soft. Drain and pat dry to remove excess moisture.
  3. In a food processor, pulse cauliflower until it resembles rice.
  4. Transfer to a clean towel or cheesecloth, squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
  5. In a bowl, mix cauliflower, eggs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.

Step 2: Make the Chicken Filling

  1. In a bowl, mix shredded chicken, cream cheese (or Greek yogurt), oregano, paprika, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and shredded mozzarella until creamy.

Step 3: Assemble and Bake

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Take a small portion of cauliflower dough, flatten it into a circle, and place 1-2 tablespoons of the chicken filling in the center.
  3. Roll or fold the dough over the filling to form a ball or small roll.
  4. Place rolls on the baking sheet and sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm!
