So tonight I wanted one of my favorite dishes, pizza!! Decided to try a new recipe out that calls for a paleo and gluten free crust using cauliflower. Some recipes call for a cup of cheese to hold together better, i decided to make my creamy cashew cheese substitute instead. Made a nutty delicious crust just have to make sure you cook it long enough to ensure adhesion or it will fall apart. I added spinach, dates, and goat cheese on mine- choose whatever flavors you like!

Ingredients

1 head of cauliflower

2 eggs

1/2 cup raw cashews

1 cup water

1 tbl italian spices dried or 1/4 cup fresh chopped

1 tbl avocado or olive oil

2 cups tomato

Any ingredients and toppings you like

For dough add water to cashews and sit over night or for at least 2 hours. cut up cauliflower and place in food processor chop up fine. Microwave cauliflower in pyrex dish for 7 minutes. Ring out and excess water. Remove water from cashews and pulverize in blender. It should look like paste. Addthis to cauliflower along with egg and spices, mix. Form into ball and place on greased parchment paper placed on pan i used round pizza pan. Press into pan. Brush oil on top. Cook in pre-heated 425 degree oven for 20-30 minutes or until browned all over. Remove and cool 5-15 minutes. Add sauce or tomatoes and any toppings you like. You can make it for many different types of diets and healthy eating lifestyles. Enjoy!!!

Tried a new recipe tonight. Got the inspiration from a fellow challenger, unfortunately I left the commissary without zuchini. So I decided to do a leek soup. Instead of cream, I used the frugal paleo recipe for creamy cashew sauce-(ummmm yum!!!) great healthy recipe a must try!

Ingredients

5 slices bacon

1/2 onion sliced

2 leeks sliced hard root removed

2 carrots cut

3 celery stalks cut

3 cloves garlic

1 sweet potato chopped

3 bay leaves

3 tbl dried parsley

5 cups chicken broth

1 recipe creamy cashew sauce from frugal paleo

Begin with cooking bacon, reserving drippings and setting bacon aside. Cook next 5 ingredients in bacon grease. Add potato, chicken broth and herbs. Cook on medium heat for 25 minutes. In batches place in ninja and blend well. Pour into bowl with small amout of cashew sauce to your desire. I added cut spinach, bok choy, and bacon on top. Add your favorite ingredients to conpkiments the subtle onion flavoring.

Creamy cashew sauce is made from soaking 1 cup of cashews in 1.5 cups of water over night. Remove water and lighly chop in ninja. Add 1/2 tbl salt. Blend longer til smooth. Add 1/4 tbl pepper and 1 cup chicken broth blend creates a creamy almond/cashew milk mixture. Really cool creamy! Enjoy!!
