| © 2018 |

Falafel gets a healthy makeover! These flavourful baked falafels are better than the real deal, because they are made with cauliflower, broccoli sprouts, white beans, almonds and einkorn flour! It makes a great lunch paired with salad greens, extra roasted cauliflowers, Feta and a refreshing yoghurt dressing.

Cauliflower Pizza Crust Topped With Sausage & Peppers

Have you tried making a cauliflower pizza crust yet? What are you waiting for?  The benefits include: a gluten free pizza option, healthier and less calories.  This crust is a really good low calorie option because it is only made of cauliflower and egg.  I have another recipe you can find here. This crust is a bit crisper as it also has cheese in the crust….YUM! Just be sure you dry the cauliflower reallllllly well.  This takes some patience and a lot of paper towels!

CAULIFLOWER PIZZA CRUST INGREDIENTS
  • 1 pound cauliflower florets
  • 2 eggs
PREPARATION

Preheat oven to 400°F.

In a food processor, process cauliflower until finely chopped.

In a microwave-safe bowl, cook cauliflower for five minutes or until tender. Place cauliflower in a towel, and squeeze out excess water so it is completely dry.  This takes a while! LOL

In a bowl, mix egg and cauliflower until well-combined.

On a parchment-lined baking sheet, spread cauliflower dough out until it resembles a pizza round. Bake for approx 35 minutes.

Top however you want (see below for sausage and peppers topping) and bake for 5 more minites until cheese and toppings have baked.
