Not yet! I will one day soon (hopefully)
Hmmm. Maybe I'll make a turkey and cranberry pizza for fun. Would that be an abomination?

I played around with gluten free pizza bases earlier this year when Bek got diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. We gave the gluten free and nightshade free diet a go but she just found it a bit much to deal with along with coming to terms with her diagnosis (she's only 17, my poor lil bunny)

Anyway, I found it a good learning experience because things behave so differently in the absence of gluten formation! The gluten free flours they have nowadays are pretty good, and I found xanthan gum to be quite useful in approximating the elasticity that gluten gives.

I may revisit it if Bek decides to give the gluten free thing another try some day in the future. But it's hard for a kid to give up pizza and pasta. I never did manage to perfect it.
