A year ago, I decided it was time to shake things up in my weight loss journey. I’d been working hard—making healthier choices and staying active—but I needed some excitement in the kitchen. As I scrolled through recipe ideas, one caught my eye: a cabbage pizza.
I’ve always loved traditional pizza, with its gooey cheese and savory toppings, but I knew it wasn’t the best fit for my goals. This cabbage pizza, however, offered a tasty and nutritious alternative that aligned perfectly with a low-carb, low-sugar lifestyle.
The recipe was delightfully simple. I shredded the cabbage, mixed it with eggs, a touch of flour, and seasoning, then spread the mixture thinly onto a baking sheet. After popping it into the oven, I prepared the toppings—slicing fresh bell peppers and grating cheese. The colorful ingredients and tantalizing aroma filled my kitchen with excitement.
Eating healthy hasn’t always been easy, but moments like this—experimenting with new recipes and rediscovering the joy of cooking—make it so rewarding.
The cabbage crust exceeded my expectations, offering a crunchy, satisfying base for the savory toppings. Each bite was a reminder that healthy eating can be both delicious and fulfilling.
Sharing this creation with my son, a traditional pizza enthusiast, was the cherry on top. He enjoyed the cabbage pizza too, which motivated me even more to continue on this path. It was just one step in the journey, but a memorable and flavorful one.
