GLUTEN FREE MEXICAN PIZZA

INGREDIENTS

For the crust

  • 1 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup gluten free oat flour If you can’t find oat flour, you can put old fashioned rolled oats in a food processor to make your own.
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

For the toppings

  • 1 cup Pace® Picante Medium plus more for dipping
  • 1 1 lb. lean ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese or mild cheddar
  • 1 small tomato chopped
  • 1 small can sliced black olives
  • 1-2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 13″x9″ pan. Set aside.
  • Place all of the crust ingredients in a food processor (or large bowl). Process or stir until smooth.
  • Pour into prepared pan. Bake for about 20 minutes or until edges just start to turn light golden brown. (Note: the crust bubbles up a bit while baking, but don’t worry. It settles down when you take it out.)
  • Meanwhile brown the ground beef and drain. Add taco seasoning mixed with water. Heat on medium until thickened.
  • Spread 1 cup Pace® Picante Medium onto warm crust. Then add browned meat, cheese, tomatoes, olives and cilantro. Bake for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
  • Slice and serve with sour cream and more picante sauce.
