Pizza Date Night

Earlier this week I went to Costco and could not believe my eyes when I saw they already brought out the Christmas decoration and what I thought was even more weird was that there were people putting the stuff in their carts!

Anyhow at my house the summer is far from over so last night me and Freddie had a “Pizza Date Night” on the patio before Laura and her crew came to join us for a glass of wine.

When was the last time you had a guilt free flatbread?

This is a flatbread that is both gluten-free, low-carb and if you want dairy-free…

I don’t normally eat dairy, it is not because I’m intolerant it is just a choice but lately I do have a pice of cheese once in a while and tonight was one of those evenings!

1cup/1.25dl Water

1 teaspoon Salt

1 tablespoon Dried Basil

1/2 tablespoon Paprika Powder

1/2 tablespoon Garlic Powder

Fresh Chopped Tarragon

Salt and Pepper

Topping

1 pound of Ground Turkey

Taco Spice

Mushroom

Artichokes

Olives

Cheese (optional)

How to: This is more or less the same recipe as the tortilla bread but I kept the “bread” in the oven longer to make it more crisp. Mix all the ingredient in as bowl and let in swell for about 10 minutes before spreading in between two sheets of parchment paper (It is easy to make it thin this way). Place the “bread” in the over for 10 minutes at 300F/150C. Remove the top sheet of the parchment paper and put it back in the oven for another 10-15 minutes or until the bread is crispy. Let the bread cool off.

I cheated a when I made the tomato sauce because I left out the simmering part but yet it turned out just fine. Just mix the ingredients together and spread it over the flatbread. Add the topping and put the tray back in the oven for another 10 minutes.

I actually did not use all the bread because I saved it for later. So when other people might be enjoying their doughnut and the only thing you want to do is to steal it and eat it. It is very nice to have your own little healthy snack, and maybe add some coconut butter on top while sipping on that afternoon coffee.
