The best Pizza ever!!!!
Shrimp Pizza Gluten Free
Ingredients:
1 Pkg. of Bob's Red Mill Pizza Mix
1 lb.White shrimp, shelled, de-veined, and slightly cooked
1 jar of Renaldi Tomato and Basil Pasta sauce
1 small Zucchini, sliced and quartered
1 Red bell pepper, de-seeded, cut into chunks
1 Lb. Cherry tomatoes, cut in half
3 TBSPS Green onions, sliced
4 Tsps of minced Garlic from jar
10 leaves of baby Spinach
Directions:
Prepare pizza crust as directed but instead of 2 round pizza pans I put the pizza on 2 silver cookie sheets.
Bake crust after letting them rise at 425 degrees for 10 minutes. Saute all veggies in olive oil except Spinach, garlic, and onions.in pan with a little olive oil.. ( Putting the veggies on the pizza without sauteing causes them to be wet and the water from them makes the pizza soggy :). Allow the veggies to shrink down in the pan before putting them on pizza. Dress the pizza in this order: Sauce, cheese, shrimp, veggies and top with light layer of cheese. More cheese you ask?? Because your pickier eaters won't care what's on the pizza as long as their is cheese on it!! Bake both pans in oven, till cheese is browned and shrimp is pink, take out pizzas and let them rest on counter for 15 minutes before cutting. It was so yummy!!!! enjoy!! Please let me know how you like it!! I love feedback!!

Lots of New Things in Life!!
Well I haven't been on here in a while due to a very busy life....I've been having a gastric bypass of which I have lost 80 lbs so far and started a Praise band called Gracie's Faith Band....as with anything new there are growing pains and lots of joys!!!

Lamb Shank Stew

3 Lamb shanks
6 small carrots, sliced up into 1/2 inch slices
6 small white potatoes (minis) halved and quartered
2 Roma tomatoes cut into small bits.
6 cloves offresh garlic, crushed
1 1/2 cup fresh tomato puree
1/2 red onion, roughly chopped
1 cup chicken stock
Directions:
Cook Lamb shanks in crock pot covered for 4 hours. pull out bones and the grizzle and throw away. Break up lamb with fork into bits. Add carrots, potatoes, garlic, Mrs. Dash, tomato puree, chicken stock, and onion into crock pot. Stir throughly and cook 4 more hours or until potatoes and carrots are tender. Add salt and pepper to taste. I usually let everyone salt and pepper their own bowls of stew!!
