Egg White Pizza tutorial
I make these 2 at a time so I can eat one fresh and have one to look forward to the next day. When you love something this much and it’s dense nutrition, you don’t mind leftovers. And that’s how I survive motherhood right now. #dontjudge
Step 1 (this is 6 egg whites, flipped once, 1 TBSP pizza sauce
Step 2 - that’s 1 slice of ham in slivers
I found a rendition of this on Iliana Mulestein’s Instagram page and have played with this till I borderline perfected it (to me at least) and I have this at least 3 days a week for lunch or dinner. My kids have watched me eat it and inquired if they could “try it” (afraid to commit to a whole serving LOL) and now they love it too. See if it’s a crowd pleaser in your house!
The key is to use a small enough pan (6-8” at most) so it’s thick enough to hold a “slice” to eat. If the pan is too big it’ll fall apart, but if that happens, call an audible and make a delicious scramble instead. It’s not going to be a wasted meal!
I do 1 of 2 recipes… 1) 8 egg whites for vegetarian pizza, or 2) 6 egg whites with 1-2 slices of ham or prosciutto. 1 TBSP clean pizza sauce is plenty. Then chose whatever veggies you want to add. I like to put these on once I flip the pizza so they get warm, but not wilted or cooked too much. Did you know when you cook vegetables that you lose a lot of nutrients? And it’s not necessary. My go-to are arugula (aka Rocket in Australia), red peppers (healthiest choice of pepper and has the most calcium) and sometimes if I’m low on veggies for the day I’ll add mushrooms too (but I’ll cook those because raw is #yuck). Bust out those containers because cheese is hard to eye ball! Use 1 blue container of your preferred cheese 🧀 as long as you haven’t already enjoyed cheese or avocado 🥑 that day, as the very last step.

This was my dinner while family had frozen bacon & cheese pizza from grocery store. I love pizza y’all but honestly, this was damn good, I was very full and I didn’t feel like I missed out at all. You should enjoy what you eat, but you also want to remember it’s food and food provides fuel for your body. A recent video with Shaun T really impacted me when he said “talk to your food and ask it, what are you going to do for me?” When you think of it like that, the brownie or white flour pizza, doesn’t look so appealing, amiright?
Step 3 (from tutorial above) serve & slice into 4 pieces.
Containers simplified!
Vegan Vanilla Shakeology (1R) + ⅓ cup water stirred, blueberries (1P) on top
Let’s talk about these containers and see if I can simplify them. I know so many see all the colors and think… how will I know how much to eat, how much of each food group I need, how much more to I need if I do intense exercise, or don’t exercise at all? Or what if I’m nursing and need extra calories for the baby and I? I’ve got you covered and can help you know with all these questions! It takes 21 days to start a new habit and make it stick and by 30 days, your body will be craving it!!!
I started with containers 3 years ago and have never looked back, and still use them daily. If I don’t measure cheese for example, I could eat a whole block and call it 1 serving. The more I like something, the more tempting it is to just keep eating and eating and then regret it the next day when I’m bloated, low energy for my kids or workout, or clothes are feeling tight. It' feels amazing to wake up feeling proud of your choices and feeling good.
This one-pot-wonder is a hodgepodge of ingredients I had in my fridge which a client actually inspired me to make. It’s clean 6 chicken sausages, 4 medium sized zucchini, 6 portobello mushrooms, served over cauliflower rice (for me) and fried rice (for my kids). You can add onions and garlic too which would taste amazing, but those don’t sit well with my stomach :( I used Italian Seasoning and it was amazing. This served a family of 4 for 2 nts and 1 more lunch for myself and the whole thing was under $15! My plate on right is 1 red and 2 greens. If you’re doing 1B Mindset you’d want a few more veggies so your ratios are 25% protein and 75% veggies (#veggiemost), and make sure to drink 16 oz water (#waterfirst).
Let me know if you try this and what you think!
