Cauliflower Pizza Crust

image

I’ve had folks asking me for this recipe since I made it.  Nearly two weeks ago.  OOPSIE!  Sorry. 🙂

Here it is!   Here it is!!!

Ingredients:

  • 1 Head of Cauliflower
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/4 cup goat cheese
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp. oregano
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp. sea salt
  • Desired Pizza Toppings!

Step One : Process cauliflower until fine “powdery” texture.

Step 2: Put cauliflower in microwave safe bowl, cover, microwave for 4 minutes.   Dump cauliflower onto a clean tea towel and let cool for a few.  Once cool enough to handle, wrap side of tea towel around veggie, twist and SQUEEZE!  Keep squeezing until you can’t squeeze a single drop more.  You want to squeeze out as much water as possible in order for the pizza crust to hold together.

Step 3:   Mix the rest of ingredients in a bowl and add cauliflower.  Press mixture on oiled parchment paper on either a pizza stone or pan of your choice.

image

Step 4: Bake at 350 from 15-30 minutes.  Seriously.  Just watch it and remove once it hits the color and crispness you want.  The longer the better, but totally your call.

Step 5: Top with desired pizza toppings, put back in oven until cheese is melted and enjoy!

Shakeology Chocolate Bar

I was down in the dumps last night thanks to the lovely human being who dinged the door on my brand new Black Beauty and didn’t leave me a note.   GRRR.   So, now my passenger side door has a dent on the bottom.   Cool, bro.  Thanks.  Whatevs.

It honestly could be way worse… it’s just the principle of it all.   Hang on to your dang door when you open it.  DUH!  Clint thinks we can get it pulled out later.

So, to swallow my pain I was thinking chocolate and wine.  I went for the chocolate BUT used my shakeology instead to make it.

Hello superfood goodness.

Brown Sugar and Molasses Cookies

These cookies are sinful.   They stay a little doughy after baking, they have a rich molasses and brown sugar taste, and pair perfectly with a mug of hot pomegranate green tea, or if you are my husband, a glass of milk.

Just LOOK at those perfectly rounded cookies and cracked tops.

I see you drooling right now.

As is with most of the recipes I share, they are fairly simple to create.  Just be sure to place the dough balls in the refrigerator for at least an hour before baking, otherwise they will just be runny blobs.

But, then again, if you don’t follow the directions you could create one of those hilarious Pinterest #nailedit Memes.

Enjoy!
