I developed this recipe because I was looking for a healthier alternative to traditional pizza. I love pizza, but I don't love the way it makes me feel after I eat it. I wanted to create a pizza that was still delicious and satisfying, but that was also good for me. This cauliflower pizza is the result of my efforts. It is made with whole, unprocessed ingredients, and it is packed with flavor. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
