Pizza Salad {Gluten-Free & Paleo Option}

{Gluten-Free} Pizza Salad
What I love about this salad is how you can customize it any way you would like. You can add any variety of proteins and vegetables. And, you can change up the salad dressing you have with it.
Gluten-Free Pepperoni
I never would have thought that pepperoni would contain gluten, but apparently there is gluten in everything! There area few pepperoni products available online that are gluten free. Hormel offers gluten free pepperoni and the brand is widely available.
Gluten-Free Ham, Chicken, & Turkey
If you prefer to not use any processed meats like ham or pepperoni, you can use the Italian Sausage and Bacon. Those are typically gluten-free and paleo friendly.
Gluten-Free Salad Dressings
Boar’s Head Gluten-Free Deli Dressing
If you are making a Paleo version of this salad, use Italian sausage, bacon, and a Paleo-friendly salad dressings. Leave out the cheese ( or use a Paleo/nut based “cheese”). The Paleo diet can include tomatoes and peppers. Tomatoes and peppers (as well as eggplant, potatoes, and hot peppers) are part of the nightshade family of plants. Some people have bad reactions to these (digestion problems, joint pain, and/or migraines) and choose to leave these out of their diet.

Thanks, Madelain! It is definitely more healthy than greasy pizza (even though I really miss it since going gluten free).
This is a delicious and healthy paleo salad. My boyfriend would also enjoy it for sure.
Yes, guys seem to like this salad since it has all the pizza toppings!
Wow, I would love to try one of these. There is so much less grease; it actually looks appetizing.
Thanks, Sara! I hope you get to try this soon!
This sure does look healthier than a pizza but just as good! I am trying to eat healthy again so this would be a great start!
It is good, Corinne! I love that you get the satisfaction of getting the pizza taste without all the gluten or grease.
I just learned I have a sensitivity to mozzarella, so this is perfect for me!
I’m sorry to hear that, Heather! I have good and bad days with dairy myself. It can be challenging!
