Paleo Pizza Please

Paleo Pizza

Who says you have to give up pizza if your eating Paleo???  Get creative with the toppings.  Just stick with meats, veggies, nuts & seeds...the possibilities are endless.  Enjoy:-) 

Crust:
  2 cups of almond meal
  2 cage free omega-3 eggs
  2 tsp. olive oil
  1 tsp. garlic powder 
  1/2 tsp. sea salt

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Beat the eggs together in a medium mixing bowl.  Add the remaining ingredients. Form the dough into a ball and press onto a lightly greased pizza stone or pan.  The crust should be thin (about 12" across). Bake the crust at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes. While the crust is in the oven, brown the sausage in a saute pan and prepare the other toppings.  Remove from the oven and add the toppings...

Toppings:
  1 1/2 cups organic marinara sauce (I used Trader Joe's brand)
  1 lb sweet Italian chicken sausage (I got mine from Sprouts Farmers Market)
  artichoke hearts
  sun dried julienne cut tomatoes
  sliced yellow bell pepper
  sliced black olives

Evenly spread the marinara sauce over the crust.  Make sure to spread the sauce all the way to the edge of the crust.  Add the sausage then top with the veggies.  Place the pizza back into the oven for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees.  Remove from the oven, slice and enjoy:-)

  2. No, not so much. All the toppings really help balance it out...but then again...I love my almonds:-)
