Pizza night is a sacred tradition in my house, and I’m not about to give it up—no matter what! 🍕

This week, I experimented with @mybizzykitchen Skinny Pizza Dough, swapping in gluten-free flour to align with my flexible animal-based plan. 👌🏻

Since starting this journey, I’ve learned gluten triggers inflammation for me, but that doesn’t mean sacrificing flavor! 🤨

Tonight’s creation is loaded with goodness: a little sauce, fresh mozzarella, grass-fed ground beef, roasted garlic, butternut squash, and onions. Finished off with Parmesan and fresh basil for the perfect bite. 🍃

Who says pizza can’t fit into my flexible animal based - whole food lifestyle? Let me know your favorite toppings in the comments below! 💬

... Read morePizza night is more than just a meal; it's a cherished tradition that brings families together. For those following an animal-based diet, enjoying pizza can be a challenge, but it is entirely possible! Replacing traditional dough with gluten-free options like almond or coconut flour can yield delightful results without compromising on taste. Incorporating wholesome toppings is key—think protein-rich options like grass-fed beef, and vegetable-based flavors such as roasted garlic, butternut squash, and fresh basil. These not only enhance the flavor profile but also contribute to a robust nutritional value. Furthermore, using fresh ingredients ensures that your pizza is both delicious and guilt-free. If dairy allows in your animal-based diet, opt for organic fresh mozzarella or a sprinkle of Parmesan for that extra creaminess. The beauty of pizza lies in its versatility. From traditional toppings to creative twists, there are endless possibilities to explore! Consider adding antioxidant-rich herbs like oregano and a variety of vegetables to boost the health benefits even more. You can also personalize your pizza with different sauces, such as pesto or a simple homemade marinara, both of which can enhance taste and nutrition. Don’t hesitate to experiment and find your ideal combination that fits your dietary preferences! Sharing experiences and recipes with fellow pizza lovers can also be a fun way to inspire new creations. Remember, pizza can be a straightforward and satisfying meal that aligns with your healthy eating philosophy!

Gym Girl Pizza Night…But High Protein!🍕💪🏾
One thing about me… I’m always trying to hit my protein goals. So pizza night had to get a little upgrade 😏 This high-protein cottage cheese crust pizza is crispy, cheesy, and seriously satisfying without sacrificing the protein. Plus I love a good “throw it in the oven” weeknight dinner!
