Best Paleo Pizza Crust !

I was so happy with this recipe ! I have tried multiple different Paleo pizza crusts, but non tasted and worked as well as this one! All the others were good , but just not quite like a true good pizza crust. This crust my sister and I both agreed was just as good as a real home made thin sliced pizza crust, the texture was perfect as well as the stability of it, you can hold the pizza in your hand! ( unlike a cauliflower crust ) Hope you love this recipe just as much as me !

Almond Crusted Chicken Breast on Salad With Coconut Aminos Ginger Almond Dressing - Candida Friendly

Well its week 2 of my candida cleanse and Im feel awesome ! Day 3 and 4 were a bit ruff but I expected that . Having done the cleanse before I knew that when your body started killing off the candida you don't feel so good for a few days, but soon you start to feel better and better and then amazing !  I had some left over chicken breasts so I made up this salad, and decided to try and make a raw creamy nut based salad dressing.

Spiralized Zucchini Noodles with Meat Balls And Tomato Sauce - Candida Friendly

I recently got a super cool new kitchen tool which I love! A spiralizer ! I have wanted one for a while now, so I am so happy to have this new tool.  Check out the link below for the spiralizer I got and highly recommend. It makes perfect spirals out of many different vegetables and fruits ! I placed a link below to where you can buy the spiralizer.

On this cleanse I am taking Bentonite clay and Caprylic oil ( and extract of coconut oil) as well to help with expulsion of toxins and breaking down the yeast.
