One of my good friends has to be on a wheat free diet, too.
She told me about a delicious pizza by Amy’s. It’s made with a rice crust and uses soy cheese. About a day after she mentioned it, I went to the health food store to buy one for myself.
I had not had pizza in what seems like ages! The toppings are cheese and spinach. While I first found the pizza to be a bit bland, it was easy to fix with my own spices. After adding a bit of garlic powder and some oregano, the flavor was much improved.
When I next buy one of the wheat free pizzas, I’ll add some other toppings as well. I bet it’d be good with meat or veggie sausage as well.
Eventually, I’ll make my own rice crust. How hard can it be?

I love Amy’s pizza! It’s a great substitution for the NY Pizza place up the street from my house.
I hadn’t thought about adding some of my own ingredients or spices. I’m going to try that next time.
Have you tried the Tinkyada brand of rice pasta? I prefer the brown rice varieties. It’s really fantastic. I almost cried when I realized I wouldn’t be able to eat pasta anymore, but then another wheat free pal told me about it. SOOO tasty!
And Amy’s frozen rice mac ‘n cheese is really good, too. It’s quite high in calories and fat (400 cals, 16g of fat), but it’s quite a treat when you favorite food has always been mac ‘n cheese. I need to just learn to make my own!
