hi all!!
I’ve decided to condense my POWERMEAL A WEEK title to PMAW
to make it a bit easier to read my title without a thousand CAP letters!
I know, I know, I get carried away sometimes with my caps lock
but it’s my way of showing my EXCITEMENT about SOMETHING!
k, I’m done
So this weekend is crazy busy – as I’m getting my personal training certification!
My mind is on OVERLOAD as I sit here typing this
because we’ve been learning so much in the past 2 days!
Today’s workshop was from 8am-6pm and as much as you would think
I want to MOVE after sitting a lot today, I’m taking a REST day today.
My plan is to get up early tomorrow morning before my test;
Side note: getting up at 6am on a sunday is something I thought I’d never do!
I LOOOVE my Sunday’s for relaxing –
but my schedule is a little off with these classes!
So I’m making it work!!
No excuses!
Plus, I’ll have all night tomorrow to relax and it’s a
good way to get my body moving and blood pumping before I take my test!
So today is OBVI
POWERMEAL A WEEK RECIPE LINK UP!
Today I am sharing with you a
CAULIFLOWER CRUST PIZZA
That I was totally inspired from my girl Laura!
Check out her original recipe here!
The only tweaks I made since I didn’t have all of the ingredients:
In the crust:
-
I used 2 TB coconut flour in place of quinoa flakes
-
I used 1 whole egg and 4 egg whites instead of liquid eggs.
-
I added some fresh pepper and sea salt into the crust
After you pulverize the cauliflower and mix all crust ingredients;
you roll out the “dough” (fyi: it won’t be very “doughy” like a regular pizza dough)
bake at 425 for 20 minutes between two pieces of parchment paper.
Then after it’s baked; I topped with my
TOMATO POWER SAUCE
2 TB Organic Tomato Paste
1/4 cup organic pizza sauce
&
2 TB Nutritional Yeast
Then piled on the rainbow veggies!
-
spinach
-
cherry tomatoes
-
fresh beets
-
kalamata olives (my addiction)
-
red onion
-
zucchini
Popped that back into the oven for about 8 minutes
so the veggies could get to know each other
THEN!
I was totally inspired by her Instagram pic of this amazing idea…
Cracked a cage free egg right on top
& popped back into the oven for about 6-7 minutes
until cooked just enough so the yolk was still DIPPY! #duh
Then sprinkled with some fresh basil!!
OMG it’s heaven in your mouthhhh.
It may seem like a lot of steps but it’s really EASY!
I pinky promise!
