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
- 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

Instructions
- 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.
- Prep all of your toppings and set aside.
- Prepare GF pizza crust according to package directions.
- 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.

- Add olives and pepperoni and return to oven.
- Bake until cheese is melted and starting to turn golden.
