Update: Check out the Epic Meal Time Meatza
Made a Meatza (aka the paleo pizza) today. It looks fancy but was super simple to made.
Basically a pizza with meat instead of dough covered with all your favorite veggies.
Recently I saw Nick Massie making Meatza in the CrossFit Journal (unfortunately no free download).
It looked so delicious that I gave it a try.
Lots of meat (shrimps, beef, turkey) and veggies (peppers, tomatoes, onions, zucchinis, mushrooms) .
