We’re not kidding: with a cauliflower and eggplant crust and a rainbow of veggies on top, it’s a slice you won’t feel any guilt about!

ingredients:

  • 1 cup cauliflower, riced
  • 1 cup eggplant, riced
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 2 small sweet potatoes
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chili pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • A handful spinach
  • 1/2 red onion, diced
  • 3 jalapeños, chopped
  • 1/4 eggplant, sliced

  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • Cheese for topping (optional)

directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Blend the cauliflower and eggplant in a food processor or blender until they have the consistency of rice. Microwave for 4 minutes.

  4. Bake for 15 minutes.

  6. Saute the remaining vegetables.

  8. Spread the spicy sweet potato mash on the baked crust and arrange the vegetables on top. Bake for 5 more minutes.
