Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, kosher salt, and black pepper until evenly coated. Spread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for about 20 minutes, until tender and golden brown.
  2. Dust your work surface with flour and roll out the pizza dough to about ¼ inch thickness. Transfer the rolled dough onto a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
  3. Spread ⅓ cup of barbecue sauce over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Arrange the roasted cauliflower and sliced red onion on top.
  4. Increase the oven temperature to 450°F (230°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy.
  5. Mix the vegan mayonnaise with lemon juice, minced garlic, chives, and parsley in a bowl until smooth. Drizzle this mixture over the baked pizza, garnish with additional chives, slice, and serve.
