Food Bits

Cauliflower Pizza Crust

















A new recipe I tried to pack more veggies into pizza.  The crust is made from... grated cauliflower!!  The original recipe I used is here but the second time around, I liked the addition of fresh oregano, red pepper flakes, and some cornmeal. Cooking on parchment helped it release from the cookie sheet.

It was actually quite yummy (plenty of cheese!) even if it wasn't as crispy as I'd like.  I will make it again.  Heck, I still have half a cauliflower left!


Walmart Steaks
Walmart is now offering "top quality USDA choice steaks".  There are ads all over TV where "steakovers" fool restaurant patrons into thinking they are getting a quality product.  No apologies here but I really don't think I'll be getting my meat from the same place people go to buy home electronics, gardening supplies, and jumbo packages of paper towels.  

By eating less red meat in general, I don't feel bad about splurging on the occasional steak that I know came from an animal that was fed well without hormones, and slaughtered humanely.
