I'm not sure what it is about pizza but I'm not going to lie, I miss it soooo much. I'm a New Yorker, growing up pizza was dinner every Friday night. Who am I without pizza? I really can't answer that question. Devastating. So, we try to reinvent. It's summer, who doesn't want something fresh, easy and takes less than 10 minutes?
Well here's my take on a healthier version. Sure I'd love to say screw it, just take me to Frank's Pizza (my local childhood pizzeria) and get me a slice but for me, there are consequences and I have to remind myself that its one slice or two days of pain, inflammation, and couch sitting. So why not splurge on our Mediterranean Pizza instead?
When I splurge, I allow myself a bit of dairy. I use OUTER AISLE cauliflower crust as it cooks well compared to other crusts. Everything is super simple!
Yum, fun treat!
