Day 1 Raw Recharged, & Cauliflower Crust

It's Wednesday! 'Hump' day, or what I'm calling workout Wednesday today! Did you get your workout in? I did, under some pressure as I had to rush to shower post workout and rush out the door to my hair appointment. I also couldn't work out any childcare for my youngest daughter, Summer, during my cut and color... So I'm at my appointment, cutie in tow:) 

She was actually really good and I think she enjoyed hanging out with mommy!;) 

What else is awesome about Wednesday? Today is the day the Raw Recharge challenge starts! (If you missed last post about the guidelines or what this is all about see last post here. 

I'm so excited! Today my green juice consisted of coconut water, fresh from a coconut which I had on hand, cucumber, celery, lemon, and basil! Juicing today with my ninja and strainer also was a much bigger success, I think maybe due to not adding the avocado it passed through my strainer with ease! :) 

Tomorrow I'm thinking maybe ill do coconut water, cucumber, herb mix, fresh dill, lemon, and maybe a carrot ? Not sure how that will go over in the blender... 

On another note, I posted earlier on my Facebook page that I would post a recipe for...... 

Ingredients: 

 I used all organic ingredients, this isn't necessary but I recommend it :) 

-1 medium sized head if cauliflower ;about 4 cups if cauliflower 'rice' 

-1 egg

-2-4 Tbs coconut flour 

-1tbs basil 

-1tbs oregano 

-1tbs crushed garlic 

-tbs olive oil 

1/2tsp sea salt

The method:

Preheat oven to 400c. Wash and dry cauliflower. Cut florets (you don't want much stem) and put in food processor (I used my ninja food processor, which I LOVE:), pulse for 30-40 seconds until it resembles little round bits like rice but more round. Preheat a pan to medium heat, add cauliflower 'rice', cook for about four minutes (this will release the moisture)  stirring a few times. I used paper towel but you could use a dish cloth to squeeze as much of the moisture out as possible, this is very important!! Then I add the remaining ingredients (add 2tbs coconut flour, if it still seems too moist add another 1tbs-2), cauliflower rice, and blend with my dough paddle/setting (in my ninja) until well combined. The dough should be sticky and forming a ball but not quite the consistency of 'real' dough. Then I pat onto a parchment covered pizza pan and bake on 400 for about 5 minutes ( until the sides are just browned) Enjoy!!!!:)
...and for those of you who may have missed 'Tornado Tuesday' on fb, keep this in mind on WORKOUT WEDNESDAY! :)
