Beignets

Twenty minutes and seven ingredients is all you’ll need to whip up this gluten-free take on a classic pizza parlor favorite. To round out your meal and amp up the fiber count, pair it with a side of garlic-roasted veggies. Asparagus, onions, broccoli and peppers roast well in the oven and when mixed together, compliment the flavors of the pie quite nicely.
