Veggie Lovers Spaghetti Squash Bake!

If you liked my Spaghetti Squash Bake, then you will definitely love this one. This recipe is almost the same as the spaghetti squash bake except it is low fat and stuffed with delicious green peppers and onion.

Follow the same recipe but with THESE CHANGES;

this time I used a SMALLER SQUASH (I was only cooking for me plus some leftovers for lunch =-)

Substitute MARGARINE for the butter

Only use a small scoop of sour cream and 1 EGG

Add tobasco for some more flavour

Extra red pepper flakes and thyme!

Use a whole small onion (because i love onion, plus its good for the heart)

dice up some GREEN PEPPERS AND MUSHROOM and toss em in the mix :)

I also used a little less cheese this time, but only a little less... because cheese is my life.

ENJOY and let me know what you think ;)

Cauliflower crust pizza!

EASY HEALTHY RECIPE for a Carb free dinner!!

Using Cauliflower for the dough... AMAZING, tastes just like pizza except you don't feel nasty, gross and bloated after having a few slices. I made about a 10' pizza and it fed 3 of us girls. Put whatever toppings you want, and I used vegan cheese, however, using regular cheese would be fine since you aren't eating any carbs!!

Just use a cheese grater to grate the cauliflower until you get about two full cups.

Cauliflower Crusted Pizza

Serves 2-3 people.. about 9-12 inch pizza

Ingredients:

CRUST:
1/2 LARGE head cauliflower (or 2+ cups shredded cauliflower)
1 large egg
1 cup vegan cheese (OR REGULAR :)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon onion salt

TOPPINGS:
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1/2 cup vegan cheese
1/2 cup olives (i love olives)
1/4 cup green peppers
1/4 cup diced onion
1/2 cup sliced mushroom

1. Shred the cauliflower. YOu can use a food processor if you would like. One head of cauliflower will give you about 2 cups.  Place the cauliflower crumbles in a large bowl and microwave them (dry) for 8 minutes.. Set aside to cool down


2. Crust: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a cookie sheet or pizza pan with nonstick spray (or use a nonstick surface). In a medium bowl, mix the cauliflower with the remaining crust ingredients. Pat the "crust" into a 9 to 12-inch round on the prepared pan. Spray the crust lightly with nonstick spray and bake for 15 minutes (or until golden). Remove the crust from the oven and turn the heat up to broil.

3. Prepare the pizza: Spread the sauce on top of the baked crust, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge. Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese on top. Add the veggies!! Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Broil the pizza 3 to 4 minutes, or until the toppings are hot and the cheese is melted. Cut and Serve!
