Sweet Potato Pizzas
Everyone has their weaknesses, their diet-busters, their evil temptresses. One of mine, as you may have guessed, is popcorn. Unfortunately, since I am striving to lead a Paleo lifestyle, popcorn is a no-go. (Still searching for a good nut-free Paleo cracker recipe. If you find one, please pass it on!) The big temptation for my husband is pizza. He is a pizza fanatic. So when he pointed this recipe out to me online, he asked me to make it for him, hoping to scratch the pizza itch in a healthier way.
To be honest, I thought it sounded gross. The ingredients didn't sound like they'd combine into something I wanted to eat. Thankfully, I was a good wife and made him what he wanted. I tried a bite ... and LOVED it! So happy I trusted him! These Sweet Potato Pizzas are not the same as a crispy-crusted calorie bomb from your favorite pie shop, but they are a tasty dish nonetheless. And if you are craving pizza but don't want the gluten-and-grain crust, here is a good place to go to feed your need. Find my recipe at GCH.
