I've never been a big pizza lover, but I am marrying someone who craves pizza like I crave ice-cream ;) So as a compromise I decided to try outcome Cauliflower pizza for us so that he could have his pizza and I could stay on track with my Paleo Lifestyle :) This recipe is SUPER easy and makes a full size pizza!

I am a sweets lover, there's not secret about that. So when deciding to really to take my health in my own hands (candida, adrenal fatigue, hypothyroidism, hormonal imbalances etc,.) I knew that a huge part of getting that all under control was what I was putting in my body. I decided to go Paleo a few months ago and lately have been experimenting with some new recipes to keep things fun and interesting. This one right here is a WINNER! If you make them, let me know what you think!
