Coming soon...daily meals on a budget

Hey guys and gals!
Today my husband really inspired me to share a new strategy with my blogging.  The #1 thing we hear is "it's so expensive to eat clean". Karl and I feed our family of 4 on a $120 a week food budget. Eating healthy and on a budget can be done!

Look for some posts coming very soon on dollar for dollar expense on meals from breakfast to dinner including snacks. I'll also be working on helping put together a weekly meal plan broken down by cost.

Remember folks, keep it simple. Lean protein,  veggies and fruit.

Stay tuned!

Almond flour pizza crust

The whole family enjoyed the crunch and toasty flavor of this gluten free, dairy free, sugar free pizza crust!

Serving size: 2

What you'll need:
Parchment paper to line your baking sheet or pizza stone.
1 cup almond flour
1 egg
2 tbs melted coconut oil
pinch of sea salt
1/2 tbs garlic powder
1/2 tbs Italian seasoning . 

Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.

Whisk your egg,  garlic, italian seasonings and salt. Then add in almond flour and melted coconut oil.

Lightly coat your hands in the coconut oil and roll the mixture in to a round ball.

Line your baking sheet with parchment paper and a little oil on top to help not stick.

Press out your dough until about 8inches in diameter.

Pre-bake at 350 degrees with no toppings until golden brown.
Add a thin layer of sauce (I used Target's Simply balanced marinara because is sf/gf/df) bake until chosen toppings are hot.

We opted to top with salad instead of cheese ;) yum!

*Note* if you are topping with meat make sure it is cook all the way to safe temperature before adding to the pizza.
