Pizza is a delicious food that we can find everywhere, but the traditional crusts are made of ingredients that aren’t good for you. There’s a nutritious and healthy way to make one for a healthier body. Check out the article we found at Healthy Holistic Living.
Pizza can be healthy too! Instead of a heavy and greasy pie crust, try cauliflower and chia seeds instead.
Cauliflower Pizza Crust
Ingredients:
- 1 Large head of Organic Cauliflower
- 3/4 cup of ground almonds
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Dried Oregano
- Sea salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 3/4 cup water
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400F.
2. Mix your chia seeds in with the 3/4 cup of water and place in your fridge 20 minutes before intended use.
3. Chop the cauliflower, and place in a blender or food processor and blend until it is a fine rice-like texture.
4. Measure out around 3 cups and place into a large bowl, add in the ground almonds, oregano, salt, and pepper. Make a hole in the center and add in the Chia goop.
5. Combine the ingredients by hand and, and shape everything together into a ball. It should be loose and sticky not like a traditional dough.
6. Put the ball onto a baking tray and form into a flat crust with your hands. Make a ridge around the outside, and bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Add your favorite tomato base, and toppings bake an additional 5-10 minutes and enjoy your healthy meal!

Wow, what a great idea. Just picturing all the yummy local organics on top is making my mouth water. I’d also try it with whole hemp seed like the ones in Darby Bars.
