Meals I Can Make: Fall Harvest Pizza

 We love a good pizza recipe, and this one is particularly great because it is totally customizable to YOU! Crust wise- you can go with any dough you like, or a premade Cauliflower or Gluten-Free option if that's more your style. This can be done vegan and dairy free by subbing out the Ricotta for a Whipped Almond Ricotta. And if you would like to add some meat, chicken sausage is a great alternative. 

Enjoy!
