Chocolate Chip Cauliflower Pizookie

America’s two favorite foods: pizza and cookies, combined into the ultimate dessert.  A Pizookie.

BJ’s Brewhouse is notorious for their trademark Pizookie, decadent and melt in your mouth delicious.  And, unfortunately, FULL of calories, carbs, and fats.  While I am all for getting in some carbs and fats in moderation, those 4 inch little treats are 580 calories, 68 carbs and 23 fat :(! There has got to be a better option…

And wait, THERE IS!

This Chocolate Chip Protein Pizookie has size (8 inch diameter), 33 grams of protein, hidden vegetables, and only 390 calories for the entire thing!  Here’s the recipe:
