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

Everyday Eating & Mardi Gras

The beauty of eating gluten free is that it is simple. It takes you to core eating. Healthy foods. The difficulty is finding delicious healthy foods. Here are some of my everyday staples. Mind you, I love vegetables. Fresh vegetables are my favorite. Flash frozen are a far second. For a quick fun snack or even meal. Fresh green beans and Bella mushrooms. Microwave in a covered dish for 2-3 minutes to steam. For fun and food variety each month, my hubby and I like to follow themes with the seasons. This year we had home cooked New Orleans cuisine on Mardi Gras Tuesday. A great tasting gluten free sausage was our mission. We found one we love, Aidelles Cajun Andouille Sausage. Be ready, it is spicy. It is everything you are looking for in a sausage. Gluten Free, no MSG, no Nitrates, no added Hormones, no artificial ingredients. Whoo! Almost like making your own sausage. We tried Zaterain's Jambalaya mix last year. We tried Zatarain's Dirty Rice thi...

Make Ahead & Freeze Gluten Free Recipes.

After 8 months of gluten free eating my husband is on board to cook gluten free meals for me. He is an amazing cook. He is creative, follows the recipe and adds his own flair to make the recipe all his own. He even came in 2nd at a huge chili cook off at our church. He has created two new home recipes for me. Both are make ahead recipes. Both are freezable. In our household we like to cook twice a week. Enough to be evening staple meals for two or three days. With only two of us it makes it easier than most families of 4 or more. With these new freezable recipes we have been trying, we can cook on Sunday and have meals for a month if we choose. These recipes can stay in the freezer for up to 3 months. Pizza Tot Casserole 1 1/2lbs ground beef ...
