Instructions
- Turn oven to broil.
- Add cauliflower to a medium-size bowl and add a little coconut oil and sea salt. Mix with your hands. Feel free to add a little smoked paprika if you have any on hand.
- Add cauliflower to baking sheet and broil for 10-15 minutes, it will depend on how small you cut them. You want them almost done.
- Then add onion slices to the same baking sheet as the cauliflower and place back in the oven for 5 more minutes.
- While vegetables are in the oven, cook pasta according to package directions, use a large pot if you can.
- Next, make the pesto by placing all ingredients in the food processor and blend until smooth. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides a few times.
- Once all three of those are done, it’s time to put it together. In the same pot you cooked the pasta, add drained and rinsed pasta, cooked vegetables and pesto, stir well.
- Dish out servings, top with tomatoes, olives and 1 spoonful of pizza sauce
- Serve hot!
