gf pizza heaven.

August 2, 2010

Last night Aly and I visited gf pizza heaven. One of our gf friends invited us and a few other lovely gf folks up to their spectacular property for a gf pizza dinner.

I’m not gonna lie to you readers, we indulged in numerous games of bocce, drank some good wines and ate gf crackers with dips and cheese pile atop them. But the evening really started to heat up, literally, there was even a heat sensing gun to prove it, when our hosts fired up their outdoor, woodfired oven and Aly made her top secret pizza dough [which will be in the savory digest, once we recover from the sweets digest] into tons of individual pizzas. Plus, plus plus, there was the most incredible topping spread you could ever imagine and we each got to create our own. It really was like pizza heaven. I took full advantage, despite the ridicule, as evidenced in my mile high pizza in the photo above. Our host’s super rad husband baked each one for us as if his life depended on it. He was kinda like the concierge in pizza heaven who’s there to make sure you are pampered and that you get the most out of your stay there. We’re thinking about applying for dual citizenship in real life and gf heaven. Fingers crossed.

Dessert was brought by another guest who is not only gluten free but many things free. She made almond meal based, cherry chocolate cookie ice cream sandwiches. Yes, you read that right. They were 100% delish. She got the recipe from The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook, which by the by, has some pretty tasty looking recipes in it.

All in all it was an amazing night, despite the fact that I had to unbutton my pants on the way home. Being gluten free, not too shabby when you have friends like we do!
