The Search for Pie-Gluten Free Pizza Pie

So we have tried homemade. The toppings and ingredients are great but the crust has the texture and taste of a rubber Frisbee. So here are our new discoveries.

Udi's brand
Most of us know if for it's bread and bagels. They now have pizza. We tried the pepperoni two separate times. Both delicious. Not many toppings though. $6

Your Pie
Restaurant has a speciality crust for gluten free eaters. It is a create-your-own pie. The crust is very thin and quite over cooked. Kind of like you were eating a burnt tortilla chip with toppings on it. Thin cheese. They can also create a salad bowl for you with the same crust, which might be why it tastes like a tortilla bowl. $10

Against the Grain
So far the best we have tried. Thin crust, but not paper thin. You can choose to bake a soft crust or crispy crust. We choose the three cheese pizza. Loaded with cheese, not loaded with spices. We added oregano and basil along with some green olives. Truly our favorite so far. Also quite large compared to the other two that were both 10 inch pizza's. $7

Last but not least my new easy pop-in-the-microwave favorite. Fresh potato covered in cheese and pepperoni topped with Parmesan cheese. Simple, easy, gluten free.

Have a Happy Healthy Day

The December Adventure to Find a Delicious & Simple Gluten-Free Bread Recipe

Oh my goodness. I have tried a GF bread mix, GF flour, a mix of GF flour and rice flour all...yuck. Still the best GF bread recipe I have is cornbread. In fact, last week we turned it into a jalapeno cornbread. Now we are going to try a jalapeno & cheese cornbread. Amazing!! Add some beans on top and some GF chicken broth on top. Yummy. The Adventure 1. The GF recipe said, put all the dough in ONE bread pan and let rise to the rim and bake. Since I have baked homemade bread in the past, I thought, "Hmm. This sure is alot of dough for only one bread pan." And...it was. As it baked, it rose five inches above the bread pan itself. It browned on the outside and cooked the appropriate time, I took it out and it was not cooked on the inside. I laid it on a cooling rack like instructed, the bread collapsed. Very bizarre. I think the directions on the GF bread back need to be changed. LOL 2. I took an old recipe from my Grandfather and adapted it, adding GF baking flour an...

Ketogenic diet

In my search for Health-a-licious foods, (delicious foods that lead to good health). I often have conversations that lead to interesting new ideas and theories. I have recently given up caffeine...again...to see if that makes a difference in my racing heart rate (could just be that my thyroid effects it)...So to get to the point, I was sitting in a Starbucks drinking my caffeine-free, sugar-free tea and eating my fat filled, gluten-filled, teeny-tiny breakfast sandwich. The conversation lead to health and food. My friend brought up a Ketogenic diet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketogenic_diet It is an amazing theory based on science and things we have heard before with the Atkins diet or the South Beach diet, but with a twist. It is high fat, low protein, low carbohydrate. The theory being that it helps people who suffer from seizures to not suffer from seizures. I wish I would have know this last week. (My sister's beloved family pet just passed away from health issue...
