If there is one thing I look forward to after a long work week, it would have to be having a Friday night pizza night followed by the viewing of several insanely good movies. There is something about preparing a meal for my family that requires little work but is still well-rounded that makes me happy. Plus it has something to do with cuddling up to my husband on the couch.

Because I love pizza so much and even frozen pizza, I was so excited when I came across the Freschetta Gluten Free Thin & Crispy Four Cheese Pizza at Publix.

I have been a food allergy sufferer for many years and have a sensitive stomach. Well I am not alone apparently. About 15 million other Americans suffer from food allergies too. I was surprised to find that 1 in 13 children are affected as well. Because so many are also noticing that they have problems after eating food with gluten, people are trying to eliminate it from their diet completely.

Well Freschetta’s gluten free pizza is certainly good news for all those people. It’s good to know you can still enjoy a pizza without missing out. Plus they even have the gluten free version in a single serve pizza that would be great to take to work for lunch.

My four cheese pizza was just begging me for more cheese because you can never get enough cheese. So I crumbled some feta cheese on top to make it a 5 cheese pizza.

I wanted to also be sure to get our veggies in somehow, so I made a delicious Italian inspired salad with a homemade dressing. It was such a big hit and was even delicious the next day for lunch with any leftovers.

Ingredients:

Lettuce of your choice- I used spinach and butter lettuce.
Banana peppers
Red onion diced
Croutons
Feta cheese crumbled
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
Little less than 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 Tbsp Lemon juice
3 Garlic cloves minced

Combine the lettuce, banana peppers, red onion, croutons, and feta cheese in a large bowl until well incorporated together. Set aside to make the dressing.

I use a dressing bottle that has a metal whisk in the middle to mix all my ingredients together. I love this thing. It works wonders because I can store it in the refrigerator and then remix it the next time I am having a salad.

Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. Add salt and pepper to taste. Now all you need to do is pour it over the top of the salad, give it a good toss, and then sprinkle a little more salt and pepper on top.

Let the movie night and relaxation begin. Enjoy a little cuddle time, or maybe a lot.
