Really Good Pizza : )

Today I made a pizza, with a rice crust. You take the frozen crust, preheat the over to 500 and cook the crust for 5 minutes. Top the crust with Hy-Vee brand pizza sauce, soy cheese (I used cheddar and monzerella), and then all the vegetables you want (squash, zuchinni, tomatos & mushrooms are delicious) Then cook @ 375 for 13 minutes. It's awesome, and so healthy too! :)

Sounds yummy to me! (I'm craving pizza today...this is the second pizza thread that I've replied to)! :P

I'm pretty sure you're talking about the same pizza crust I've used. I don't find it exceptional in any way. I think the soy cheese made it worse. I just eat cheeseless pizza.

Deby Apprentice

can you eat cream cheese? If so, try that as a substitute for the mozerella cheese.

I have tried 2 different Rice crust pizza's and my daughter and I did not like them.

So we use our gluten-free Kinninnick's bread (sandwich bread or the english muffins) and:

Preheat the oven on 450

Spread Prego traditional sauce, top with cheese, or your favorite toppings

Cook for 10 minutes.

We love them :D

I posted a pizza crust recipe in Easy Pizza. It's the last post on that thread. If you want to try one from scratch, this one is not to difficult.

As for the rice crust you ordered, can you refuse it and mail it back? lol

I think, in the same way that, cereals are a personal taste thing, pizza crusts are too. I really enjoy Nature's Highlights rice pizza crust, but I know not everyone does. It's annoying, sometimes, that it takes a couple of hit-and-miss tries, to find something good.

I like Carol Fensters pizza in her new book. I CRAVE normal pizza.

I realize not all of you live near a Whole Foods with distributing their new baked goods. However, if you do, they have a great gluten-free Pizza Crust, tastes wonderful! Better than anything I've made from scratch on my own. I'd give that one a whirl!

I've tried the rice crust and agree that it wasn't what I was expecting. We use the recipe from the back of one of Bob's red mill flour mixes (I think it is the garbonzo/flour one) and bake it on a pizza stone and it comes out like a new york style crust. I just tend to add a bit too much sauce sometimes :(

It usually only takes 5 min. to mix it all up 10 min to bake the crust and 10 min to bake the toppings on it. So it's not as fast as some - but even my 7 year old likes it. Fresh pineapple on it was also a hit.

Guest imsohungry

Hey, you guys...I tried my Ener-G "new and improved" gluten-free pizza crust tonight. It was sooo good! (and crispy). I was really surprised...it tasted just like pizza! ;) Anyway, I'm in a good mood...who imagined I would ever get so excited over pizza??? :P -Julie

I was thinking about getting Bob's red mill garbanzo bean flour to make pizza crust. I love chick peas and it sounds tasty as a pizza crust (although I know it won't taste exactly like chick peas). But what is New York pizza crust like?

I have almost all the ingredients to make pizza crust soon. Hopefully it will be good. I think I will try one on a corn tortilla tonight.

I really like the rice crust on Amy's pizza, but it is too expensive for all of my pizza cravings.

pixiegirl Enthusiast

Well I've only been gluten-free for about 2 months and I love pizza so last night I tried to make the crust with the Gluten Free Pantry mix, it was awful, I threw it out. It was like a big sponge with pizza stuff on it. Totally Gross, I'll try some of the other options but I actually got more of a "fix" when I used corn tortilla's and made pizza quesdilla.

AMY'S FROZEN gluten-free PIZZA definitely is okay by me. I love the taste, just open the box and put it on the oven rack for a few minutes with some extra mozzarella. Really convenient and good. Its not the real thing, but its a nice item in and of itself. The AMY's frozen gluten-free macaroni and cheese, my family agrees, is even better than the standard frozen mac and cheeses, we really love it. Valerie

pixiegirl Enthusiast

Hmmm I'll have to try Amy's I like their other products. I was in Whole Foods Market yesterday and they didn't have Amy's crusts... they had finished pizza by Amy but it was gluten-free. I'll have to keep looking... do you order it or buy it in your local store?

The Bob's Red Mill garbonzo/fava bean flour pizza crust turns out like a thin crust pizza on a pizza stone. It's very good and definitely has the chick pea taste before baking but has a really good taste after baking (not so chick pea). Once you get used to making it, it goes fast to make the crust. My mom found that using Olive oil on your hands to pat the dough smooth works better than more flour as the dough is sticky. However this tends to make the crust appear more brown. My son likes helping mix the ingredients as well - he's learning great math this way!

I'll have to try Amy's too if I can find it but the above crust is a nice change from rice and corn.

I know that most of you don't live in the bay area, calif, but if you do Global Blends in Mountain View sells I can eat that bakery products, they are gluten-free breads and pizza and the Pizzza crust is really really really good@!!!!@~!~@!~!

stef-the-kicking-cuty Enthusiast

Hm, the pizza crust made from the garbanzo flour is really yummy. That stupid taste bakes out completely and once the pizza is done it's so good. Makes me want to eat one every day. :D

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
