A Study In GF Pizza ~ A

I love pizza! And pizza can be health-ier — Pizza A featured here is a great example. It's packed with veggies and topped off with some organic pepperoni for you protein-lovers. This pizza is made with all organic ingredients and is equally delicious made vegetarian. Use the Ciro & Sons pizza mix I used here (from Italy!) or your favorite GF crust.

Ingredients Method

Ingredients

  

• 1 package Ciro and Sons GF Pizza Mix Or your favorite GF pizza crust mix; if you're short on time use Schar's pre-packaged crusts
• 1/2 green pepper diced
• 1/3 yellow or white onion sliced thin or diced
• 1 handful cherry or grape tomatoes sliced
• 1 handful black olives sliced
• pepperoni grass-fed
• grated Parmesan reggiano cheese
• organic shredded Mozzarella cheese

Method

 

1. Preheat oven to 480 F (or per package instructions, based on which pizza crust you are using). For Ciro & Sons crust, I use a 12-inch nonstick pan.
2. Prep all of your toppings and set aside.
3. Prepare GF pizza crust according to package directions.
4. Pre-bake pizza crust according to package directions. For Ciro, I bake the plain crust for about 10 minutes, then remove to top with ingredients.
5. Place veggies on crust, spreading evenly.
6. Top with Parmesan Reggiano and then with Mozzarella.
7. Add olives and pepperoni and return to oven.
8. Bake until cheese is melted and starting to turn golden.
