Unlock the Best Paleo Pizza: Grain-Free, Dairy-Free Delight

I had some grain loving friends coming round for dinner at short notice, so I wanted to make something that didn't look Paleo at first glance. Additionally, I needed to use ingredients I already had; Pizza seemed like a good choice because it appears to be a non-Paleo food! Of course, my pizza used almond meal instead of flour and good quality grass fed meat.

This was the first time I've tried a Paleo pizza. Next time, I'll probably experiment with the crust a little more, perhaps by adding coconut flour. Furthermore, I'm even wondering if I could make it on sliced eggplant and do away with a traditional base altogether.
