Cooking with JoJo: Fall for this twist on mom’s apple pie

For the sauce, I used an organic coconut sugar with unsweetened almond milk, as well as ghee or clarified butter, rather than cream and processed sugar. While Kerrygold is my butter of choice for ghee because of its purity, any good salted butter will do.

Cooking with JoJo: Did you say cauliflower pizza?

I won’t lie, this recipe can be a tough one to get right, but even the mistakes are yummy. While I love traditional pizza sauce, this decadent spinach alfredo made from almond milk takes this to the next level. You can also add chicken, mushrooms and any other ingredients if you wish.
