A 7-ingredient gluten free pizza crust that requires 1 hour from start to finish and rivals any pizzeria style pizza crust.

Author: Minimalist Baker

Recipe type: Bread

Cuisine: Gluten Free Pizza

Serves: 1.5 pizzas

Ingredients

3 cups (440 g) gluten free flour blend (1 cup (160 g) white rice flour + 1 cup (160 g) brown rice flour + 1 cup (120 g) tapioca flour + 3/4 tsp xanthan gum)

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking powder

3 Tbsp (37 g) sugar, divided

1 Tbsp (10 g) yeast

1 1/4 cup (300 ml) warm water, divided

1 Tbsp (15 ml) olive oil

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C).

2. In a small bowl, combine yeast and 3/4 cup (180 ml) warm water - about 110 degrees F (43 C). Too hot and it will kill the yeast! Let set for 5 minutes to activate. Sprinkle in 1 Tbsp (12 g) of the sugar a few minutes in.

3. In a separate bowl, combine gluten free flour blend, salt, baking powder and remaining 2 Tbsp (25 g) sugar. Whisk until well combined.

4. Make a well in the dry mixture and add the yeast mixture. Add the olive oil and additional 1/2 cup (120 ml) warm water before stirring. Then stir it all together until well combined, using a wooden spoon (see photo).

5. Lightly coat a baking sheet or pizza stone with non-stick spray and plop your dough down. Using your hands and a little brown rice flour if it gets too sticky, work from the middle and push to spread/flatten the dough out to the edge (see pictures). You want it to be pretty thin - less than 1/4 inch.

6. Put the pizza in the oven to pre-bake for roughly 25-30 minutes, or until it begins to look dry. Cracks may appear, but that's normal and totally OK.

7. Remove from oven and spread generously with your favorite pizza sauce, cheese and desired toppings. We went with Daiya to keep ours dairy-free. Pop back in oven for another 20-25 minutes, or until the crust edge looks golden brown and the toppings are warm and bubbly.

8. Cut immediately and serve. Reheats well the next day in the oven or microwave.

As a hypoglycemic, I have to keep careful watch to make sure my blood sugar doesn't go too high or too low. For a chef with a snacking problem, I have to be careful what I'm picking at. As it is that time of year, I found a twist on the trend.

This truly tasty half-hour vegetarian chili is made possible by using convenient canned beans and tomatoes (no pantry should be without them). Whole-grain bulgur adds another layer of toothsome texture and nutritional heft. This chili is relatively mild, so it's a good crowd-pleaser. If you like it spicy, add extra chili powder or serve with hot sauce.

...I'm dreaming of our NOLA trip
aka I'm dreaming of all the FOOD!

What's your favorite can't-miss restaurant in New Orleans?
...I have 1159 published blog posts under my belt
Well, assuming I wore belts.

You're lucky to find me in pants most days.
...I have over 180 draft posts awaiting a little TLC
Yet I'm here writing a fresh one because you NEED this one NOW!

This is my version of shouting it from the rooftops. Hasselback Zucchini Pizzas are ready to rock your plate, your face, and change pizza night forever. A bold claim, right? They're that good!

This recipe is so easy that I was able to whip it up effortlessly while 3 little monkeys took over my workspace with play dough. A few minutes of assembly plus a few minutes of baking and BAM! Cheesy gluten-free zucchini pizza deliciousness. All while tending to my herd for the day.

" Aunt Jenn what are you doing? What's that? Can I have the extra cheese?" " Momma pick up? Cheese please! I take picture too! "

You can serve them up as a side, give them the spotlight and make it a meal, or even toss them together as a speedy appetizer or snack. The possibilities are deliciously endless.

Pizzabilities even... because that's totally a word.

#lies

I hope you love these cheesy hasselback zucchini pizzas as much as we do! They were inspired by my other recent obsession, Loaded Hasselback Zucchini. After making the loaded baked potato version, a pizza variety was just what the zucchini ordered. They're fun and flavorful and totally crave-worthy!

Ready to get your hands on these pint-sized pizzas? Here's the recipe!

Cheesy Hasselback Zucchini Pizzas

Cheesy Hasselback Zucchini Pizzas

Author Jenn Laughlin - Peas and Crayons

Need a few process shots? Not a problem!

Here's my chopstick slicing technique for perfect hasselback zucchini (and potatoes too!) as well as a shot of the stuffed zukes just before baking:

Hasselback Zucchini Tips + Tricks

I used chopsticks to make hasselbacking these zukes a breeze! You can also use a pair of pencils or snag two wooden spoons or really anything of that nature. They'll keep you from slicing all the way through the squash and leave you with the perfect edible accordion.

The longer your zucchini is the more little hassleback "nuggets" you'll be able to make. Use the above recipe as a guide to make as many servings as you'd like!

Too hot for the oven? Toss these bad boys on the grill! Since they're cooked in a foil pouch they are oh-so-easy to cook outdoors!

Serving a crowd? Slice each zucchini into 4-6 portions after the "hasselback" step, stuff them, then skewer each pint-sized portion using a toothpick. This way guests can easily snack on little bite-sized servings of zucchini pizza. They hold up much better than those flat little zucchini pizza discs that are all over Pinterest plus food is always more fun on a stick!

Vegetarian? There are a few tasty veggie-pepperoni options on the market currently! Give them a try if you'd like!

Pair these low-carb gluten-free cheesy hasselback zucchini pizzas with a veggie loaded side salad or some tasty grilled veggie kebabs!

Fish Curry for a low FODMAP (for IBS) diet

 a drizzle of vegetable oil - about 2 tbsp  1 clove of garlic, sliced  1 red pepper, deseeded and very finely sliced  green parts of 4 young leeks/ or spring onions, finely chopped  2 tsp whole coriander seeds, roasted lightly and then ground  1 tbsp whole cumin seeds, roasted lightly and then, ground  1 tsp ground turmeric  a walnut sized piece of fresh ginger peeled and finely grated  10 cherry tomatoes, roughly cut into quarters  1 stick of lemongrass, very finely chopped (optional)  165 mls coconut milk (a small can)  1 tbsp fresh lemon or lime juice  1 tsp miso paste dissolved in a little hot water (optional - you can just add a little water)  a dash of fish sauce (optional)  salt and pepper  400g white fish, cut into small chunks or a mix of white fish and prawns (or chicken breast can be substituted for fish)  a handful of fresh baby spinach leaves

Drizzle the vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan and gently fry the garlic slices until they begin to brown and then discard. Add the chopped green leek leaves to the garlic flavoured oil and sweat these until they are soft but not discoloured. Add the ground coriander, cumin and turmeric and ginger to the pan and cook gently for a minute. Add the chopped tomatoes and the lemongrass, if using followed by the coconut milk and kaffir lime leaves. Mix the ingredients together well and allow to simmer gently for about 10 minutes (during which time you can cook some Basmati rice which takes about 12 minutes to cook). Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning by adding a little lemon juice, pinch of sugar, salt and pepper. Add a splash of fish sauce too if you want to add more flavour to the curry. If your curry needs a little more liquid add a little water or miso paste and stir well. You are then ready to add fish or chicken to the sauce. If using fish or prawns allow 6-8 minutes to cook at a simmer. Chicken will take about 12 minutes and make sure the simmer is lively as chicken needs to be cooked well for it to be safe to eat.

If you have diabetes, try to restrict your diet to 1500-1800 calories in a day. Moderation is the key - eat everything in moderate quantities. Try to include lots of vegetables into your meal in order to increase the fiber content. For eg. : Try to use whole grain noodles or pastas, use brown rice to make all variety rice dishes and try to include lots of millets in your diet. In addition, try to include as many vegetables or sprouts as possible in the dish to increase the fiber content. Fruits are high in fiber too. However some fruits like mango, banana, grapes etc contain high sugar level. So consume these fruits in small portions. Here is a delicious recipe for all the diabetic people out there !

Jessica Hedley- Celiac disease dinner recipe

# data[].attributes.body
People suffering from Celiac disease are very sensitive to gluten. Gluten damages the small intestine making it very hard to absorb and digest food. Gluten can be found in wheat, rye, triticale, and barley.

The symptoms of this disease can deeply impact a person’s life, and it is very important to stick to a strict diet in order to keep control of them. This can be very difficult day to day, especially when eating at home is not possible. This is because many foods have gluten in them.

Here is a recipe I found that someone who is sensitive to gluten or has Celiac disease could eat.

Are you tired all the time? Maybe your cells and organs aren't getting enough oxygen.

Red blood cells are transporters of oxygen. And when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells or the substance that carries oxygen (hemoglobin), a condition called anemia can develop.

The result - low energy, fatigue, loss of concentration, dark circles around your eyes, cold hands and feet, irregular heartbeat, pale skin, dizziness or fainting, shortness of breath and other unpleasant health effects.

Causes of Anemia

Iron deficiency anemia can be caused by:

An iron-poor diet, especially in infants, children, teens and vegetarians

Pregnancy and breastfeeding that deplete a woman's iron stores

Menstruation

Frequent blood donation

Endurance training

Digestive conditions such as Chrohn's disease or surgical removal of part of the stomach or small intestine

Certain drugs, foods, and caffeinated drinks

Iron to the rescue!

Iron is a mineral that's necessary for the production of hemoglobin in red blood cells. It's also involved in the production of ATP (the basic unit of cellular energy) and essential for the regulation of cell growth and differentiation.

There are two forms of dietary iron: heme and nonheme. Heme iron is derived from hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that delivers oxygen to cells. Heme iron is found in animal foods including red meats, fish, and poultry. Iron in plant foods such as lentils, beans, pumpkin seeds and leafy greens is arranged in a chemical structure called nonheme iron.

Because vitamin C boosts the absorption of iron, it is best to consume iron-rich foods with vitamin-C containing foods to get the most benefit.
