If you are avoiding nightshades then leave the tomato paste off and use olive oil as the topping, leave off the capsicum and drizzle an egg over the top.

Colourful and delicious. A family favourite and no-one will guess what the base is made from.

When the pizza is cooked remove from the oven and slice using a pizza slicer. It will smell delicious. Serve on its own or with your favourite meat. You will be able to carefully pick this pizza up with your hand but l would eat it with a knife and fork.

Enjoy this delicious version of a gluten and dairy free pizza made with all natural ingredients.
