Pizza and Chocolate are here to stay!
I HAD to share these recipes because they have saved me. Eating healthy doesn’t mean you can’t have foods that you like. Honestly, if you get your digestion working optimally you can digest anything, which is great news! I think it is best to stick with healthy eating at least 51% of the time. Eat more healthy things than not. I’m almost positive you will still see me eat regular cheesy pizza sometime. I am currently satisfying my crazing for pizza and chocolate with these recipes. I hope you enjoy! Send me a message if you make and eat them and either one becomes one of your favorites too!
Here are the recipes to pizza and chocolate I love making and eating.
Chocolate:
You have to make sure the coconut oil is a liquid so you can mix it. I like it on nuts and strawberries. All you have to do is dip the nuts or berries into the chocolate and place on parchment paper. Then place the yumminess in the frig. Or you can put the chocolate mixture on nut balls or your own granola bars with a spoon from the mixing bowl. I usually use a small jar so I can easily save whatever deliciousness is left and eat it later.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup cocoa powder
3 tablespoons maple syrup
Beetroot pizza:
For this recipe I sometime use 1/2 the cauliflower and one less egg. You can play with the amount to get what you like. I also add avocado dressing to the pizza in place of a tomato sauce. I use avocado, olive oil, salt, pepper and a little lime. This is just how I like it, you can add or modify to your liking.
Ingredients:
1 head raw cauliflower
2 medium beets (raw & peeled)
¾ cup almond flour
¼ cup coconut flour
4 eggs
1/2 tsp sea salt and black pepper
1 tsp oregano
parchment paper
Directions:
Place cauliflower and beets in a food processor and blend until it turns into a fine rice texture. (You may have to pre-chop the beets a little bit). Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the flour and spices.
Mix well with your hands and then add in the eggs.
Whisk until everything is nice and combined. It may be a little wet, but you should be able to form it into a ball.
Next place on a lined (with parchment paper) baking pan and spread out evenly with your hands.
Bake in the oven at 400°F for 15-20 minutes or until slightly golden and firm.
Remove from the oven and add your desired plant based toppings (and avocado dressing and cheese if you want)
Place back into the oven for another 10 minutes and then it'll be ready to enjoy!
*As I stated in the video, THANK YOU to Katie Silcox and Kate O’Donnell for sharing these with me. Let me be clear, I did not come up with these recipes on my own. I just love them and use them often and I thought you might want to try them too!
