Here's a few of my past sneaky recipes:
Rhubarb Bars (Sesame Seeds)
Sheppard's Pie (Cauliflower #1)
Veggie Pizza (Cauliflower #3...I sure do love cauliflower! Haha)
Sweet Potato Pie (Sweet Potato)
Southwestern Pasta (Spaghetti Squash)
Apple Pie Ice Cream (Apples)
Zucchini Crisp (Zucchini)
PP&J Bars (Garbanzo Beans #1)
Strawberry Cheesecake (Cottage Cheese)
Double Chocolate Protein Pancakes (Lentils)
Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies (Garbanzo Beans #2)
Brownies (Black Beans)
Notice some of the ingredients don't seem too sneaky be as they are listed in the recipe's title...but I assure you if you don't tell your taste testers they'll never know!
Today's recipe is super versatile and can be used in several ways. The "Pizza" crust can be used as a wrap too. Plus the spices and herbs in the crust/wrap can be easily adapted to fit any of your favorite pizza toppings or wrap fillings. I have to admit the crust recipe is not entirely my own, but I've designed several various pizza recipes to make up for it. I've also added a new section to my posts called "Question of the Day." So don't forget to scroll all the way to the bottom and leave your comment!
SNEAKY VEGGIE PIZZA
Crust/Wrap is slightly adapted from Fast Paleo
Crust/Wrap is slightly adapted from Fast Paleo
Cauliflower Crust/Wrap Classic Cheese Pizza
1 cup Cauliflower, cut up into chunks 1/2 tsp Oregano*
1 large Egg 1/2 tsp Basil*
1 tsp Chia seeds (optional) 1/4 cup Mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup Pizza sauce
Mediterranean Pizza Mexican Taco Pizza
1/2-1 tsp Basil* 1/2 tsp Taco seasoning*
1/2 cup Spinach, raw (or 1/4 cup frozen) 4 oz. Chicken breast, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup Cherry tomatoes, cut in half 1/4 cup Black beans, reduced salt
4 oz. Chicken breast, cut into small pieces 1/4 cup Salsa
2 tbsp Reduced fat feta cheese 2 tbsp. Lowfat cottage cheese or mozzarella
Jalapenos (optional)
Pesto Pizza
1/2 tsp Basil*
1/2 tsp Garlic powder*
1 1/2 tbsp Pesto
2 oz. Chicken breast, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup Mushrooms
2 Artichoke hearts, sliced
2 tbsp Freshly grated aged parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2. Finely grate or place cauliflower into a food processor (blender might work, but once again I have not tried it).
3. Add egg, chia seeds, and seasonings and blend until very well combined (seasonings for desired pizza flavor are noted by a * but feel free to design your own flavor).
4. Pour batter onto a greased sheet of parchment paper or aluminum foil on a cookie sheet.
5. Spread batter out into a circle to desired thickness. Mine turned out to be about a 9 inch pizza size, but you could also make a few small pizzas which might be easier to flip.
6. Bake pizza crust for 10-15 minutes and flip. A tip on flipping is to take another piece of parchment or aluminum foil and place it on top and then using a spatula to help you quickly flip the entire crust over.
7. The bottom side should be slightly golden. Bake for about 5 more minutes.
8. Remove from oven and turn heat down to about 350 degrees F.
9. Top pizza with desired toppings and place back into the oven until toppings are warm and cheese is melted.
10. Enjoy!
Makes 1 personal size pizza.
