LOL, love the pizza idea. You know what I do for pizza? I take a big round portabello mushroom cap and put the toppings on it -tomato sauce, a bit of cheese, olives, herbs, turkey and bake in the oven until the cheese melts. It's really good too.
I laughed at your broccoli comment. You know, when we aren't stuffing ourselves with comfort foods like sugar and oil, and we're working out building up muscles and using up calories -our bodies tell us what foods they NEED for a change. Suddenly things sound yummy because your body is craving those nutrients and it's smarter than we are about eating.
Things taste different too when you're really using your body.
Thanks for sharing your recipie, I'll try it sometime when I don't have musrooms sitting around.
