Fake Vegetarian Cauliflower Pizza

Fake Vegetarian Cauliflower Pizza.
Today I wanted to think about dieting and all those kids who don’t want to eat vegetables.
What’s better than offering this recipe?
Those on a diet will get a protein dish, and our kids won’t believe they’re eating vegetables.
There are various species and colors, ranging from white to green to purple.
Moreover, most importantly, these vegetables in all their forms and colors are precious foods for their nutritional principles: potassium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, folic acid, vitamin C.

They also contain anti-cancer, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant active principles.

They are purifying, contain many minerals, and promote tissue regeneration. They are also highly recommended for those suffering from diabetes.
