Although I’m not celiac (thankfully), I am sensitive to gluten, wheat and some dairy. Trying to find a good gluten-free pizza crust isn’t easy, and isn’t easy to make.  So when I was offered the chance to try out this new gluten-free pizza, I thought – yes please!

Sabatasso’s New Thin and Crispy Gluten Free Pizza is a delicious gluten-free pizza available at Costco. It’s certified by the Canadian Celiac Association Gluten-Free Certification Association.

You can’t even tell that this is a gluten-free pizza crust – it tastes like a regular crust and it’s crispy.

The cheese pizza is topped with various cheeses including mozzarella, fontina, parmesan and Asiago. The tomato sauce is really good too! I was pleasantly surprised because frozen pizza isn’t normally so tasty.

Pop it in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes in a 400°F oven and it’s done. The crust is thin and crispy which is another bonus. Plus there are TWO pizzas in each box and are wrapped separately for convenience.

Here is a list of the ingredients:

Low moisture partly skimmed mozzarella cheese, pizza sauce, tomato puree, water, tapioca starch, rice flour, rice starch,  fontina cheese, parmesan cheese, asiago cheese, dried whey, yeast, vegetable oil, palm oil shortening, sugar, salt, xantham gum, garlic powder.

I’m not so sure about the dried whey, palm oil shortening and the vegetable oil in the ingredients. I would love to see those substituted with healthier options. As for the nutrition labels, you should definitely stick with 1/4 of the pizza – don’t be tempted to eat half! As with many frozen foods, the sodium levels are a bit high.

Despite these few concerns, Sabatasso’s Thin and Crispy Gluten Free Pizza is definitely a better option for me and I would buy this product at Costco for those pizza cravings! It really is a good gluten-free pizza. I had to contain myself from eating the entire pizza.
