Dear Michelle-
Thanks for sharing your card game menu with us! Even though this is a dietetic menu, I feel like I gained 10 pounds just posting it all onto The Jewish Hostess! Looks like it was an amazing day. Wish I was there to feast on your delicious lunch! Marlene
“Hi Marlene,
Last week I had my friends over lunch and cards. Being that we are all always dieting, I tried to make a healthy and delicious lunch menu.
I scoured through my cookbooks new and old. Borrowed my sister in law’s Dare to be Different kosher cookbook by Robin Jemal.
I found a lot of new recipes. I must give credit to my sister Laura Shammah – who got this Cauliflower Crust Pizza recipe from someone she works with. It is amazing!!!!!!

Cauliflower Crust Pizza:
- 1 head cauliflower – chop and grind (in food processor)
microwave 6 minutes (no water)
this makes 3 cups
- 1 cup of the cauliflower
- 1 egg or egg white
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- put on cookie sheet that is sprayed well
- don’t let edges of crust mixture touch sides of pan used as that will make the edges hard
- bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes
- put on toppings I roasted some veggies. and cheese
- put back in oven just until cheese is melted
