Healthy Pizza with Cauliflower Crust (Gluten Free)
(For 1 person)


Ingredients

Base
1. Half a head of cauliflower
2. 1-2 cloves of garlic minced
3. 1 beaten egg
4. 1 cup low-fat/skim shredded mozzarella cheese
5. dash of sea salt
6. dry herbs (oregano)
*I used Herbamare instead of the last two ingredients (sea salt and herb infusion)

Toppings
1. Salt reduced tomato paste
2. Any topping you want. I used: mushroom, olives, cherry tomatoes, red onion, fresh basil, chilli flakes.
3. A little mozzarella on top


Method

1. Break up cauliflower into small florets and pulse in the food processor until it resembles small grains of rice. (If you don't have a food processor, you can grate it or chop the crap out of it until it resembles small grains of rice).
2. Put in a bowl and bang it in the microwave for 8mins (uncovered, no water needed).
3. Let it cool down, then put in a cheesecloth or thin tea towel and squeeze the crap out of it. (This part is important; it cannot be too moist… a lot of liquid should squeeze out).
4. Put back in bowl, add egg, garlic and cheese and mix well (with hands)
5. Cover an oven tray with baking paper then lay your mixture on it and make it into a round pizza shape. Keep the ‘dough’ quite thick about 1.5-2cms because it thins out when baked and if its too thin, it’ll just break.
6. Bake it in oven at around180degrees for about 30mins or until it browns and stiffens up.
7. Put your toppings on it (not too many because if its too heavy it’ll break).
8. Only needs a tiny bit more mozzarella on top because of all the cheese in the base.
9. Put back in the oven until the cheese has melted.
10. Cut it up into 6, eat immediately while it’s hot so you burn the roof of your mouth.



Banana Choc Ice-cream


Ingredients

3-4 Sliced very ripe bananas (frozen)
4 tbsp Coconut Oil
2 tbsp Raw Cacao powder (or use cocoa)
2 tbsp Macadamia butter
3 Servings WPI/WPC
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Sprinkle of Pink Himalayan Salt

Method

1) Melt the coconut oil and stir in the Cacao powder over low temperature (you don't want it to get over 40°C)

2) Allow to cool slightly, and add macadamia butter (if you want chunks of macadamia you can stir it in last after blending)

3) Blend the choc-coconut oil, bananas, whey protein and salt until smooth (you can add a small amount of milk if your blender is having trouble)

4) Serve straight out of the blender or freeze for an hour for a firmer result

Bare Choc Balls 

Ingredients

These are perfect for an on the go protein hit. They are packed full of fatty acids, protein, vitamins and minerals.
2 cups pitted fresh dates
1 cup mixed activated nuts (50/50 mix macadamia and pecan - has the best flavour and not too oily)
½ cup sesame seeds
¼ cup chia seeds
¼ cup linseed
2 tbsp Dark Cacao WPI
1 tbsp coconut oil
30 - 90 ml almond,rice or oat milk

Method

1. Blend dry ingredients together and set aside.
2. Blend dates and coconut oil.
3. Combine two in blender whilst adding the milk to the desired consistency.
4. Roll into desired sized balls

More milk will make a more luxurious truffle style ball which will require refrigeration, less milk to no milk will make a harder ball with a longer shelf life.

Dusting
Mix grated raw dark chocolate in equal parts to dessicated coconut (about 50g of each).
Rub sea salt and cinnamon to taste into the dusting mix. (Can just mix if using ordinary salt). Roll the balls in the dusting and enjoy!
