Spaghetti Squash Crust Pizza (Gluten Free/ Grain Free/ Dairy Free/ Vegan Option)

So I have said before that you need to think outside the box when having food allergies. Things need to be done differently. When I first figured out about my food allergies I searched the internet for hours and hours trying to find recipes.

One thing I keep trying to find were pizza recipes. I do have a good pizza dough recipe now, but before I figured out the dough recipe, I made up a different crust recipe. This one is a great grain free option!

Some recipes I found were all cheese (which wouldn’t work because I can’t have dairy). At that time I introduced myself to spaghetti squash. I had remembered a recipe using macaroni, eggs and Parmesan cheese to make the base of a pizza casserole. Since the spaghetti squash worked well as a pasta, I thought it may work for this. I have used Tre Stella Romano cheese because it is made of sheep’s milk, and I’ve also used rice flour. Both turn out about the same.

I haven’t figured out a way to make it so you can pick up the pizza, but it’s great with a fork.
Last New Year’s Eve I made it for a party we went to and everyone loved it!
