Paleo Pizza

This is a bit different for me as I usually post recipes for delicious treats, but the paleo pizza that I stumbled upon is just too good not to write about!

Ingredients:
Crust:

1/2 cup coconut flour
1 cup almond flour
1/4 up olive oil
5 eggs
pinch of sea salt
a little pepper
a little garlic
(If you want to take the pesto out, add rosemary to the crust for a popping flavor!)

Pizza:

1/2 cup pesto
1/2 marina sauce
1/2 cup arugula
1 1/2 lbs ground meat of your choice (bison is the best, organic ground beef if great too)
1 can black olives
1 cup diced mushrooms
1 cup sliced bell peppers
1/2 chopped tomatoes

Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Mix all the ingredients for the crust in a medium bowl. It is going to get really thick and sticky from the coconut flour, so either add more oil or add some water until it stirs up to be a smooth batter, but not runny. Grease a large cookie sheet with butter and add the batter. Even it out so the entire cookie sheet is covered, and poke holes in it with a fork so it doesn't bubble up in the oven. Pop it in there for about 17 minutes or longer if you want it crunchy and brown. Meanwhile, chop up all desired toppings. Feel free to get more of your favorite toppings to add. When it is finished, pull it out and spread on the pesto and marina sauce together. Sprinkle the remaining ingredients over the pizza and bake again for 15 minutes at 400 degrees.


Mine was split in half with cheese on the right side for people in my house who wanted cheesy pizza.
