Carolyn Braden's Gluten Free Pizza Attempt: Success

I am trying to add more gluten free food into my life. I am trying to rid myself of the bloated "wheat belly" we all get after eating too many carbs loaded with gluten. I found this pizza crust mix and invented a pizza that my husband and I loved. The mix is by Hodgsdon Mill. I made the crust according to the package directions. After baking the crust for the first 10 minutes, I pulled it out of the oven and let the creativity fly.
I brushed the crust with olive oil. I added organic roasted rosemary seasoned red potatoes (I made these prior to starting the crust), organic fresh spinach, organic cheeses (mozzarella and parmesan), sun dried tomato pesto and some fresh garlic. I baked it for about 15 more minutes. It is my new go-to pizza dinner. It is so worth the effort!

Carolyn Braden's Jazzed Up CPK Pizza

I recently experimented with adding my own flavor to a frozen pizza from California Pizza Kitchen. I chopped up some golden potatoes and roasted them with olive oil and rosemary. I topped off a CPK White pizza with the cooked potatoes and some parmesan cheese. I baked it for around 15 minutes my new favorite pizza was born. Try adding your own flavor to a frozen pizza!
