Savory Garlic Sauce Pizza

You will be amazed at how yummy this cheese-less pizza is! When we first cut out dairy I thought cheese would be the hardest to give up but I am finding with delicious recipes such as this one, it's really not missed at all! My toddlers even loved it, they each ate 3 slices!

Recipe was found here and we modified it by using our favorite whole wheat pizza dough recipe found here.

-Pizza Dough (I make two medium pizzas and 1 medium loaf of bread with the best yet whole wheat bread recipe found here)
-10-12 garlic cloves
-1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
-1/4 teaspoon sea salt
-1 small jar sun dried tomatoes drained and soaked in water for 1 hour
-Italian seasoning, basil, any other seasonings you'd like

Roast garlic cloves in the oven at 375 for 30 min or until brown. When cool enough to touch, blend cloves with coconut milk and sea salt. Spread mixture out on top of prepared pizza dough (make the crust of your pizza dough slightly thicker around the edges) place the sun dried tomatoes and seasonings on top and bake on a pizza pan at 475 for 10 min or until crust is brown and sauce is bubbly.

German Pancakes

This is a healthified version of an old family recipe. My kids LOVE these pancakes and ask for them often.You may need to double the recipe if you have a family larger than 4. -1-2 tablespoons coconut oil -1 cup rice or almond milk (unsweetened) -1 cup whole wheat flour -5 organic eggs -pinch of salt Preheat oven to 425, put the coconut oil in a 9x13 pan and place it in the oven as it's preheating. Add the remaining ingredients to your blender and blend (I used the "batters" button on my blendtec). When the oven has preheated take out the hot pan of melted coconut oil and pour the batter in. Carefully place it back into the oven for 15 min. Serve with pure maple or your favorite healthy pancake topping.
