Love Sylvia's artwork, too! And I had to laugh at the cayenne mistake--that is so much like what I have done as well (once replaced my paprika stash and poured cayenne into the jar instead. Had to throw away an entire batch of paprikash). ;)Rickihttp://dietdessertndogs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-64126180519065586042012-02-11T07:36:12.958+11:002012-02-11T07:36:12.958+11:00Ooo I have never seen a pizza like this before!!

One of the reasons I never grew up eating pizza was then with my mum's gluten, dairy, and tomato allergies, there was truly almost nothing we could make, even once gluten-free pizza bases and goat's cheese were around.

So glad that you liked the tofu bacon. I have been meaning to do another post about it as I make tofu bacon so often and more recently have been using a grill pan. I like the idea of adding some to fried rice, my boys aren't that keen on fried rice but if there was some tofu bacon included, it could be more appetising.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10057980932079998162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-51002979161044595552012-02-10T07:48:43.593+11:002012-02-10T07:48:43.593+11:00I really love this idea of using carrot on a pizza...I really love this idea of using carrot on a pizza!!!!!Lisa (bakebikeblog)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14802600386274518441noreply@blogger.com
