Pizza Sauce Alternatives?

My name is Kris, and I'm a pizzaholic.

Next line....

My name is Kris - and I suffer GERD - so I can't eat tomatoes.... tomato sauce, or any of my other favorite pizza toppings.

Big problem, eh??

So, what else can I use to make a pizza??? Is there such thing as a low acid tomato sauce? Is there such thing as a dairy/lactose free alfredo sauce?

I'm not very creative in the kitchen. My pizzas normally consist of Kinnikinnick crust, organic sauce, and soy mozzarella - and often chopped tomatoes.

I want pizza..... can anyone help me????????????????????

There are loads of "white pizza's" that don't use tomatoe at all. Just google or look at

Then just pick the ingredients you like and thow em on top :D (obviously missing out any non gluten-free ones)

Also depending how bad you are with the tomatoes you could try boiling them for a long time (like over 1 hour)

you need to add water a bit else you'll get treacle .. but while boiling you can add some garlic and herbs and then 10 minutes before your ready throw in some basil.

Hope these both help

Pesto is a good pizza sauce...excellent, actually :)

I sometimes make my pizza with just cheese and toppings. I put some ricotta on the pie, top with a bit of mozzarella then put on my favorite toppings. I use sliced mushrooms and olives. YUM

Maybe your GI doctor can start you on Prilosec for GERD.

I have had the same problem, but with one tablet daily, I can eat anything and have

no ill effects.

With that problem, you will want to get checked periodically, too, to be sure your

esophagus is healthy.

There are a mirad of problems that can occur if not treated.

Don't just do without tomatoes.

Get treated. Stay well.

I've found that if you put a lot of moist toppings on pizza, you don't really miss the sauce too much.

You could also try doing a white sauce. I do a wonderful crab pizza using ricotta, garlic, onion, and crab meat. Mmmmmm....

Olive oil and spices make a great base for pizza, almost like a bruschetta without the tomato.

Horseradish (I don't know how that would work with GERD) also makes a good base, just don't use the creamy stuff. I do horseradish (very thin layer) with parmesean, red peppers, garlic, onions, and mozzerella.

Pesto is good.

Moist meats like canned chicken, canned crab, etc. seem to negate the need for sauce when lightly drained.

Hope that gives you a few ideas to try.

Even in my gluten eating days, I always preferred white pizza with olive oil, cheese and spinach. :P

Yeah, I love tomatoes too, and couldn't imagine going without for the rest of my life! I seriously second the motion that you go get some Prilosec :) You shouldn't have to suffer (either way). Pesto sounds SO good...I'm gonna make a pesto pizza tomorrow with fresh basil from my garden!!! I actually had a good pizza from Amy's. I know the brand gets a lot of grief due to "CC" but I've never had a problem. It was a spinach pizza with lots of cheese on it, and it was so good i was almost done with it before I realized there was no sauce :) Anyway, good luck!

All these ideas sound great! I can tolerate tomatoes yet I am going to try all these ones with out it. Especially the crab one.. that sounds fantastic

Is there such thing as a dairy/lactose free alfredo sauce?

i make a dairy/lactose free alfredo all the time!

i use on can of thai kitchen coconut milk, garlic powder, salt, ALOT of pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg.

slowly bring that to a boil and then i add potato starch until its as thick as i want!

i do thicker for pizza and thinner for a pasta dish.

its really good on pizza (or pasta) with onions, garlic, fresh spinach and crimini mushrooms!

i make a smiliar one with nutritional yeast in addition to those ingredients and with no garlic (although i would, i'm just allergic to it). the nutritional yeast is a powerhouse food, and you don't need to thicken it up with flour - it does the job. gives it the parm cheesey taste sans parm.

YUMMMY!! what else do you put on it???

I too would like to know where you get the gluten-free nutritional yeast.

Here is a recipe for gluten-free and Vegan Parmesan Cheese using it.

Parmesan Cheese

Equal amounts of:

Almond meal or ground sesame seeds

nutritional yeast flakes

garlic

onion

Mix all ingredients together and use on pasta, lasagne or anything that calls for parmesan cheese.

Bob's Red Mill's nutritional yeast is made in the dedicated facility.

mmmmmm.....I used to love Thai pizza before going gluten free. I never thought of making my own gluten-free Thai pizza. Someone asked about what to put on the pizza. The bar I used to get it from put cucumbers, chicken, red peppers and I think cilantro. You could also put a couple of slices of hot pepper on if you like spicy stuff. I think I am going to try to make it this weekend.

      Hi, I bought Naked Nutrition Creatine. It lists itself as gluten free but is not certified. (It used to be, but they dropped it in the past year or two apparently.) I wrote the company and asked them what testing results they had for creatine and they sent me the attached, which says the test result for gluten is <0.025MCG. I'm used to seeing test results as ppm, so I'm not sure what <0.025MCG means. Can it be converted to ppm easily? I want to confirm that it is safe to use.

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated.  So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly.  I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm, but started to reintroduce quite gradually it as I missed it! To this day, if I overdo dairy products, they work like a mild laxative.  I've never wanted to give up milk completely as I like it so much, and my mum had osteoporosis and it's an easy way of getting calcium.  But it doesn't really 'sit' well with me.   You may need to experiment a bit as when I was healing certain dairy products were worse than others - I could cope with one brand of Greek yoghurt, but I got extremely and painfully bloated with another brand of live British yoghurt.

      i have been strictly gluten free for 7 months. this includes avoiding anything that may contain gluten and making sure surfaces and appliances are clean. i am 18 years old in australia and my tTG-IgA results were 69U/mL, pretty low compared to most people's, for reference. i feel the exact same as before. sure, i was pretty much asymptomatic/silent. the worst i'd get was occasionally bad stools and pitting of the nails/brittle hair since early childhood - and i was diagnosed with low iron and vitamin d which checks out due to easy bruising and such. but those symptoms have remained. maybe i'm jumping the gun, sure. i know it can take years to fully heal. but being over half a year in, i feel that i should be, y'know, healing. i'm nearly at my wits end and wondering if i should have a piece of bread or something to see how i go - to see if i possibly have refractory? my mental health is declining as i feel myself wanting to bang my head against a damn wall out of frustration every day. cravings haven't gotten better. look, i love the stuff i still can have, like salads and such. OH! i haven't lost any weight, which is mind boggling considering i eat very healthily now! i've always been on the chubbier side which is atypical of coeliac. i just don't know what's going on with me. i try to remain hopeful but i'm just so sad all the time. thanks for reading

      @Charlie1946There is a PM (Personal Message) tool built into the forum website that allows you to send a private message to other forum users. Just hover over their name with your mouse cursor and the menu containing that tool will pop up. This is useful if you want to communicate with an individual without everyone else involved in the thread seeing it.  Are you realizing that in my PPI taper down recommendations in an earlier post above, I was responding not to your posts but to @Caligirl57? If you must use a PPI, I certainly would advise taking the lowest dose that is effective for you.
