Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked rice
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cups Grated parmesan cheese
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cups Pizza sauce
• 0.5 cups Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 cups Bell peppers (sliced)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, eggs, grated parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 3

Transfer the rice mixture onto the prepared baking tray. Spread it out evenly to form a circular or rectangular crust about 1/2 inch thick. Press down firmly to compact the crust.

Step 4

Bake the rice crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden and holds together.

Step 5

Remove the crust from the oven and spread the pizza sauce evenly over the surface.

Step 6

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce, followed by cherry tomatoes and sliced bell peppers (or any other desired toppings).

Step 7

Drizzle the olive oil over the toppings and sprinkle with dried oregano for extra flavor.

Step 8

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Remove the rice pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your homemade rice pizza!
