Air Fryer Lean Cuisine Cauliflower Pizza Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 Lean Cuisine Cauliflower Pizza (any flavor)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (199°C) for 5 minutes. This ensures the air fryer is properly heated for even cooking.
- Carefully remove the frozen pizza from the box and plastic wrapping.
- Place the pizza directly on the air fryer basket. No need for parchment paper or liners, as the cauliflower crust is designed to be cooked directly on the basket.
- Air fry for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on the pizza during the last few minutes to prevent burning.
- Let the pizza cool for 1 minute before serving. The center will be very hot!
Tips:
- If you prefer a crispier crust, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- You can add additional toppings like pepperoni, veggies, or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes before air frying.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes until warmed through.
