Grain and Dairy-Free Pizza Recipe (It’s Delicious)
Cheese and bread, oh how I miss you! Sometimes not being able to have foods you once loved can be a tough realization, which is why every week I find a new way to work an old recipe into a grain and dairy free variation.
This recipe replaces a traditional crust with meat and you can add whatever toppings you like. As a matter of fact, I might even enjoy this variation more than I ever did regular pizza. (My fiance won’t admit it but he’s pretty smitten for it too!).
Below is the recipe I’ve fallen in love with:
