Pizzaaaa!!!

So... what do you do when you have a WICKED pizza craving, but you've already eaten your allotment of carbs for the day?

I give to you....

Eggplant Pizza!!!

This is a recipe I adapted from Julia Child, actually. So basically pizza is pretty healthy on it's own. There isn't anything magical about it... it's when you really think about the nutritional quality of the dough that you realize that you can definitely satisfy that craving in a completely healthy way a little differently. Not that there's anything wrong with eating a few slices of pizza here and there... but if you're a pizza LOVER and gotta have that fix at least once a week, here's a healthier alternative.

How you should roll:
1. Preheat your oven to 350.
2. Slice your raw eggplant 1/2 to 1 inch thick, depending on your preference.
3. Coat your eggplant slices lightly with coconut oil, then bake 15-20 minutes.
4. Take your eggplant slices out of the oven, and adorn with tomato sauce, oregano, salt and pepper, garlic, and onion powder. Then, top with cheese and any other "toppings" you'd prefer. I like diced mushroom myself. :)
5. Pop back in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melty and bubbly.

Enjoy!!
