Pepperoni Pizza Casserole

Positive Effects of Being “Gluten-Free”

For many children and adults who deal with celiac disease, they are benefiting from this allergy of gluten.  Carolyn Hax, a writer for the Salt Lake Tribune, had a column sharing the experiences people have had with being gluten-free.  One mother said that at a very young age they found the celiac disease in their daughter.  Her daughter told her mom that either her or her dad had this disease also. She voiced that they needed to get on her gluten-free diet.  Her mother began to get on the same diet as her daughter, and her health skyrocketed! She had a nightly leg cramp that immediately went away as she began to stop eating things with gluten in them.  I have read that this is not always the easiest solution but sometimes people forget to try switching up their diet!

One recipe I love is this Pepperoni Pizza Casserole.  It is gluten-free as well as low carb.  It only takes about 20 minutes!

You will need:

-1 head of cauliflower
-Heavy cream
-Butter
-Pepperoni slices
-Mozzarella cheese

In a bowl microwave 2 tablespoons of heavy cream, 1 tablespoon of butter and cauliflower.  Once you microwave that, puree it, as well as 8 slices of pepperoni, ¼ cup shredded mozzarella.

You will then pour the puree into an 8x8 pan once it is smooth.  Cover this puree with ½ cup of mozzarella and place pepperonis on top. 


Pop it in the oven at 375 degrees for 20 minutes and you will have the delicious Pepperoni Pizza Casserole.
