Rylie has joined the likes of women from all over who adore the Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond.  She comes on at the exact time that Rylie gets her shots on Mondays and Thursdays.  Rylie has forgotten her fish tank friends at the clinic: T-Bob, Bob, Camo, Didi and then Bibi (Didi's love interest ). Since discovering the Pioneer Woman, she hasn't picked up the worn out copy of Green Eggs and Ham or tried to stick her good patient stickers on random strangers.  She thinks we should try every recipe we see that the Pioneer Woman makes but this week's fruit pizza recipe, she says, had her drooling.

So today we tried it. And bonus!  We made it wheat and gluten-free and it was still "eat every crumb" good.

Everybody was pleased, even Hayden who is in strong opposition to any altered form of bread/pastry product.

Here are a few non-fabulous iPhone pictures.

We've used Betty Crocker Gluten-Free products a few times.  The chocolate cake mix (we made cupcakes) are awesome.  But how could they not be slathered with chocolate icing. I used two boxes of sugar cookie mix.

It made nine huge cookies. I could have eaten the cookies just fine by themselves.  Well, with a tall glass of milk.

 

Here is the recipe I used for the icing.  It's only the three ingredients that I have bordered in pink so neatly for you.  I couldn't find the Pioneer Woman's.  I was impatient and snapped this screenshot of the first fruit pizza icing I could find.  Then I strayed from the recipe anyway.  I used powder sugar instead of sugar, because I wanted to.

 

I didn't realize until I started cutting fruit that I got a lot of red fruit.  I don't think it mattered a whole lot except for visual purposes and I'm not usually too worried about that.

 

Here's the happy camper.  I was going to take a picture of the other two, but one had food on their face, and the other was still in pajamas (at 4:30 in the afternoon).

Until next time. The dishes.....and the laundry are calling.

If you have a good wheat free recipe, share it please.
