Wow!  I did not think this existed……..a gluten-free pizza/flatbread crust that is actually nourishing.  It does!!   Yes!!   I love pizza and bread of any kind, and I do not have a need to be gluten-free, except that I do feel better with less gluten in my body.  Quite honestly though, if I am trying to replace regular breads or crackers with a gluten-free version, I do not feel any healthier, any lighter, any less bloated.   It feels the same as eating white bread to my body.  It just as anti-nourishing as gluten-containing bread in my opinion.  
One night I was flipping through a cookbook I had not looked at in a while and noticed a beautiful photo of a very healthy looking pizza.  As I started reading about it, I noticed it was GF….expecting way less than I was initially, I scanned the recipe to see what the crust was made of.  Cauliflower, almond flour, oats, eggs and spices.   This did not sound like anything GF I have ever tried before.  Since I had those few ingredients on hand, I went for it.  Ten minutes later, probably less, I had everything mixed up, rolled out and in the oven.  
Seriously.   Twenty-five minutes later, I pulled out a beautiful golden circle shaped crust.  Now for the real test….toppings.

Over the last couple of days, I have been researching how to make a delicious roasted carrot puree……in hopes of being able to recreate my most favorite dish ever….Pizza Domenica’s roasted carrot pizza.   I cannot roast golden beets without thinking of that pizza.  But, it is an occasional treat for me, not because it is unhealthy.  Because, I can finish off close to an entire pizza and not even feel stuffed.  But, that isn’t so good for me, so I only allow myself to indulge every so often.   
With several recipes and ideas on the table, I started combining this idea with that idea and one technique with another, and after a few tries I came pretty close.  Different from Pizza Domenica’s obviously, which is a good thing so I maintain self-control.  But, similar enough where I can tame that craving with just a slice or two.    And, the pizza crust……off the charts amazing!  Without that; healthy, but not really healthy….I know I am not doing anything good for my body guilt feeling.  Pizza without the guilt?!  Yes, and so much easier than making real pizza dough!  Look in the recipes section and I will show you how to make both!  xxo!
