pizza party

We had friends over today and decided to make one of our favorite pizza's. What kid doesn't love pizza and this is a very yummy pizza and you won't miss calling for delivery.

The dough:
2 tbs yeast
11/3 cup rice flour
1 cup tapioca flour/startch
1/4 cup dry milk
4 tsp zantham gum
1 tsp salt
2 tsp unflavored gelatin
1 tsp ital.seasoning 
blend all together in a mixer

1 1/3 cup warm water
1 tsp sugar/honey
2 tsp olive oil
2 tsp cider vinegar

Add to dry and mix for about 3 minutes, until it resembles soft bread dough.
Roll out your dough to fit your pan, place on greased pan. Bake the dough in a 425 degree oven for 15 minutes.

Now while that baking you want to get a small dish, add extra virgin olive oil and freshly chopped or minced garlic, add pepper and parsley and mix it all together. Now when the dough is done baking let it cool a min and then with a basting brush, brush on your olive oil mixture, then add your sauce. I do a thin layer of sauce otherwise my kids have a huge mess and it takes away from the flavor of the olive oil mixture, but do as much or as little or no sauce that you want. Top with cheese, I use mozzarella and sharp cheddar cheese.
 Leave the oven at 425 defgrees and bake for another 20 minutes.

Snack wrap

My kids have been asking for snack wrap, so it was time to figure out a way to make them gluten free.

Tortillas:

1/2 cup gluten free flour(1/2 cup regular flour for non gluten free)
1/2 cup corn meal
1 cup of water
1 egg

Mix it all together to make a thin batter and transfer to a measuring container.

Heat up a non stick frying pan, after pan is hot turn to medium heat.

Pour batter into hot pan and swirl the batter around the pan. Cook on this side til the edges begin to curve up, then flip for the other side. Remove from pan place on a paper towel and cover with another paper towel. Make sure you mix the batter before you pour your next one into the pan. 

 Fill with what ever you would like and enjoy.  
 Now if you want take the snack wrap let it sit for a day, then throw it in the deep fryer and you have home made corn chips
