For this badge bit, you will make a pizza. They can be "normal", paleo, vegan, gluten free. Paul's "polydough" is probably the easiest way to make pizza. Here's how Paul says to make his polydough pizza:

Making the pizza in the rocket oven would count for both this BB and the parallel one in Rocket Ovens. Here's a pizza made in Julia's rocket oven



Here's my favorite SCD/GAPS/Paleo pizza dough recipe: Cheese Bread Pizza Dough. It's also, of course, gluten free!

My husband loves his bacon crust meatza/pizza, which is made with a woven bacon crust.

Here's some great permies threads with pizza recipes:

How to Make Gluten Free Pizza Crust

Grain free, dairy free, soy free pizza...really!

Here's some pictures from those threads:

Note: with most gluten crusts, like Paul's Polydough, the crust does not need to be prebaked. With most gluten-free crusts (including meatza), the crust needs to be baked first and then sauce and toppings applied, and then baked again.

Your toppings and sauce can be to your own liking. For example: a vegan pesto pizza, an alfredo chicken pizza, a classic margarita pizza, a pizza with ALL the topings. Deep dish, calazone,  and thin crusts all count, too.


To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
  - one pizza
  - you make the pizza from scratch, including the crust
  - not burnt
  - dough is cooked

To show you've completed this Badge Bit, you must:
  - Link to/post the recipe you used (especially the part about the crust)
  - pic of the crust being made
  - pic of the pizza getting it's toppings put on
  - pic of the completed pizza and a slice of pizza
          o showing that the pizza is not burnt and it is cooked all the way through
