How To Make A Gfcf Pizza

Does anyone have suggestions on how to make one. I have been craving pizza since I went cf. I have the Kinnikinnick pizza crusts, but I don't know what to put on them. How could I make them taste cheesy without any cheese?

Cheese may be an impossibility. My kids like the K crusts with Manwich. I make the Manwich with chopped meat, and top the crust with it. I've added cheese, but you don't have to. you can also throw in anything else you'd like ... more onions, gr. peppers, etc. The thing is, the manwich is so spicey and goooood, you might not even miss the cheese!

Are you CF due to an actual intolerance? Or do you feel that you need to heal villi damage? You can work dairy back in after a few months to see if it's still a problem.

I dont know if you are ok with soy or not but I use Melissa's soy shreads, Open Original Shared Link , or the store locator link at Open Original Shared Link . But I use the shreads with hormel pep. and whatever kind of spaghetti sauce you use, I tend to use prego traditional. Now the shreads do not match real cheese that close, but they say gluten-free on em and they do melt pretty good. I do not think there will ever be a fake cheese that matches real cheese perfect, but I hope this will help a little.

You adjust to pizza without the cheese. I make sure I have a lot of good sauce. I think capers really add a great flavor that I now crave. I top my pizzas (chebe mix) with sauce, black olives, crumbled hamberger, capers, veggies, onions, etc. I like tomatoes and artichoke hearts too.

It may take some time but I crave my new pizza. Of course, I went for years before with pizza without cheese - now I just have different crusts.

The soy cheeses always made me sick and now I know why.

How about a taco style pizza with lettuce, tomatoes, seasoned meat, onions.......etc?

I'd say just go cheeseless. Follow Your Heart is one of three soy based cheeses that don't have casein (that I've been able to find), and I hear it melts well, but you can make cheeseless pizza by using a good tasting sauce (I make my own), and good, flavorful ingredients. (Though every pepperoni I've seen has dry milk in it.)

I've used spinach, which is surprizingly good with a lot of stuff.

You may want to check into Open Original Shared Link vegan product line. I've only tried one of their veggie ones, which was really good IMHO. It does have soy in it.

There's also Open Original Shared Link, though I can't try theirs because they put yeast it them.

I always prefered sausage, but sometimes I wish for a bit of pepperoni.

I just looked up Gluten-free Casein-free sausage, and found Open Original Shared Link among others. They seem to have good labeling policies, and a good assortment of stuff too.

I have tried adding an aged cheese about once a month for the past few months but I have had D every time. I think it is a casein intolerance, but I'm not sure.

Thanks everyone for the great ideas. I completely forgot about artichoke hearts. I used to eat those on pizza all the time before I was gluten-free. It sounds like a good sauce is the key. After I write two finals on Thursday I'm going to make a Gluten-free Casein-free pizza and have a gluten-free beer.

Use goat cheese. Make sure it has no casein in it, so do not pick the soft stuff in the tube. I get the goat cheddar.

Goat cheese contains casein. ALL dairy - from any mammal - contains casein. The proportions of the different types of casein vary between different species, so some people who have a minor tolerance to cow-sourced dairy may be able to handle dairy from other species, it still does contain casein. If you have a serious allergy, particularly an anaphylactic one, it's a huge risk.

      My daughter was recently diagnosed with Celiac; my results are questionable and I have an appointment scheduled to see a GI doctor to further discuss. I have so many odd, ongoing symptoms that could possibly be gluten related, although who really knows!! I am considering going gluten-free whether a Celiac diagnosis is confirmed or not, just to see if there are any improvements with my dermatitis, mouth sores, aching and chronically cold hands, tingling in hands and feet, random joint pains, etc.  What are the advantages vs. disadvantages of having an official Celiac diagnosis? For instance, will it affect life insurance policies, medical insurance rates? What have you personally experienced with or without an official diagnosis? I'm almost afraid there will be more hinderances and hardships if an official diagnosis is given, but maybe I am way off base and missing the positives altogether. We are located in the US. Thank you!

      Thank you all for the reply posts.  Yes, the constipation has abated.  I am not sure whether its due to having changed to a gluten-free diet or not, but I do think that there is a reasonable correlation.  I know that I will get over this eventually, but I am finding it hard not to lament missing all of my favorite foods that contain gluten.  Certainly, my health comes first... I guess I never realized how many things contain some element of wheat.  My sister has been living with celiac disease for most of her life, so I have someone who will share her favorite recipes. The next step for me will be my appointment with a Gastroenterologist for the Celiac Team... I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving!

      Thank you. That’s all really helpful. I think it must have been something she ate as the poo colour has settled now.    Starting to see improvements in her tummy, slowly but surely!

      I take all vitamins and supplements.  My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks.  He gives me complete blood work every 6 months.  He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s.  He wants them in low 80s.  I take 5,000 IU's daily.  With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years.  It builds very slowly.   As far as iron, I take a double dose of gentle iron with C on an empty stomach on alternate nights.  Yes, iron is a component for many of us with RLS, but mostly "brain iron" that in some people may require iron transfusions.

      The positive DGP-IGA indicates the possibility of celiac disease. It is typical for someone who does have celiac disease to have some antibody tests be negative and others positive. This is not unique to celiac disease diagnosis. It is why doctors typically run many tests when seeking diagnosis of a suspected disease.  The DGP-IgA test is considered to have high sensitivity and specificity. In general, the DGP-IgA test has been reported to have a sensitivity ranging from 75% to 95% and a specificity ranging from 90% to 100%. Overall, the DGP tests, including DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG, exhibit a sensitivity of approximately 85-95% and a specificity of about 95-98%. The above paragraph is taken from this article which gives an overview of the various tests that can be run for celiac disease and their reliability: What symptoms are you experiencing?
