Looks delish. Always looking for good gluten free recipes. Thanks.
Welcome Kim, I hope you’ll like it 🙂

Looks YUMMY!!!
oh it is!
I have spent a while here and you have wonderful content!

Rhonda
thank you Rhonda I’m happy you enjoyed your visit 🙂
Great post for me, Katherine, as I’ve been gluten free for about 4 years now. It was quite the challenge at 43 giving up lots of things I loved that had wheat or rye {or barley or malt} in them. Pizza has always been a hit or miss – mostly a miss although a few local pizza places are carrying gluten free pizzas now. Never quite the same though. I’d love to try making my own and if they have dough already made up that would be great for me as I’m not a cook or baker.
Kathy I hope you’ll give this one a try. I know how difficult it is to give things up you love. 🙂
Your pizza looks and know has to taste better than this cardboard pizza I am eating tonight. 😉 I am following you via MMM blog hop. Please follow me back.

give this one a try, it’ll beat cardboard hands down LOL
Thank you so much for putting such fabulous meatless Monday dishes on your blog. This one looks so fresh and healthful as well.
its my pleasure. I can’t wait to use the veggies from our garden to make it. I hate buying veggies from the market ( although the farmers market always makes me happy)… xo
Yummo! Pizza is one of my favorites! I like using Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce spread thinly on a precooked crust, then topping with black beans, a sprinkle of cheddar cheese, avocado, and a squeese of fresh lime juice before serving! Mmmmm.
oh my goodness that sounds fabulous!!!!!
I should absolutely know by now NOT to come here hungry!
LOL you are awesome xo
My niece has celiac’s disease so thanks for this wonderful gluten free recipe!
Kat 🙂
my pleasure 🙂
Katherine, that pizza looks SOOO good! Thanks so much for visiting my blog and commenting on my bedroom post, Bed of Roses, featuring our crazy kitty, Baby. In reading back through some of your posts I see that you posted a sweet message about William and Kate getting married. I got up very early to watch the Royal Wedding (along with Baby) and just posted about it. It was SOOO lovely and she was SOOOO beautiful! I remember getting up early back in the 80’s to watch Princess Di get married as well… I hope you have a wonderful week!… Donna
Donna thank you for your lovely comment. I hope your week is a great one too. Hugs!

Laurie, thank you for the kind comment. I hope you remembered to enter my contest too.
This looks so yummy! And with that little bit of sugar….so interesting!
So many pizza sauces have loads of sugar, why I ask? tomatoes are already sweet. 🙂
That meatless pizza sounds and looks delicious! One slice for me please!! I will have to try it, as my daughter’s partner (soon to be husband!) is a vegetarian.
I hope they’ll like this one. Big Hugs!
I am seriously thinking about going on a gluten-free diet. I am allergic to everything, and I have a friend who went dairy and gluten-free, and she is a changed person. Thanks so much for posting this recipe. I will definitely try it and pass it along to my friend.
I try and think of those who have limited diets like myself. I do hope you enjoy this recipe. Hugs
I am so excited about this recipe!! I am going to try it and pass it on! I have you featured on the front of my site…hope it brings you some new readers…have a Marvelous Monday!!
You are such a sweetheart, thank you soo much!
I love meatless pizza, Katie. Yours looks yummy! Have a fine week, dear friend!
Oh me too. 🙂
