Last night I had a nutrition workshop at Elite Physiques. I took out some of my super foods for “show and tell” and made some low sugar blueberry muffins. The muffins were a hit so here is the recipe. These muffins make a quick breakfast just don’t eat to many. I hope you like them!

 No-Flour Cauliflower crust Pizza

INGREDIENTS:
CRUST
• 2 cups grated cauliflower
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (organic)
• 2 eggs
• OPTIONAL: 1⁄2 cup sautéed onions 
TOPPINGS (add what you like)
• 1⁄4 cup pizza or pasta sauce (find the one with the least amount of sugar)
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese (sprinkle on top)
• Sliced mushrooms (optional)
• Basil leaves (optional)
• Pepperoni slices (optional)
• Sliced tomatoes (optional)
• Olives (optional)

DIRECTIONS:
• Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees.
• Grate 2 cups cauliflower.
• Combine and mix 2 cups grated cauliflower, 2 eggs, and 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese in a mixing bowl.
• Cut parchment paper to fit pizza pan. PARCHMENT PAPER TRICK:
– To cut a circle of the right size, first tear off a square of parchment roughly the size of the pan. Fold it in half and then fold it in half again.
– Next fold the square into a triangle. Find the corner of the triangle where the center of the paper will be once it’s unfolded. This is your center point.
– Hold the triangle up to the pan with the center point of the triangle at the middle of the pan. Approximate the distance from the middle of the pan to the outer edge and trim off the excess paper following the curve of the pan.
– Unfold the paper and lay it flat in the pan. Trim any rough edges if it doesn’t fit quite right.
• Mix crust mixture thoroughly and spread on the parchment paper as thinly as possible.
• Cook the crust for 15 minutes. Let cool down for 5 minutes.
• Apply cheese and topping.
• Cook for an additional 10 minutes and enjoy!
